Think about everyday traffic and the rules involved with being allowed to drive on our roads. You must follow the rules, abide by the laws, stop when the lights or signs tell you to, move your vehicle when the light turns green, and have travelled on the roads without damaging your vehicle or others. Finally, these rules give you and others the right to feel safe while driving on the roads without unnecessary worry.
In network and computer security, the CIA Triad is very similar to the rules of the road and is extremely important. Today you are going to conduct some research to learn about the CIA Triad. In your research, you may also find that some people refer to this as the Security Triad or the CIA Triangle.
In your discussion post, respond to the following items:
