Write Up: The CIA Triad
The CIA Triad also known as the AIC Triad is a model designed to aid in information security
within a company/organization. The three main focal points of the CIA triad are the protection
and privacy , accuracy and trustworthiness , and the consistency and accessibility of
information. Although many believe it needs updates/reforms , The CIA Triad provides a way for
organizations to retain their value when it comes to those three key areas. The differences
between Authentication and Authorization are a matter of identifying and permissions.
Authentication is simply who you are and confirming you are who you say you are while
authorization tends to be more private and confidential. A good example of authentication would
be how organizations allow verified employees to access the workplace systems, an example of
authorization would be needing a password or scanning a badge to access workplace systems
that aren’t available to every employee.
