2SECURITY PRINCIPLES
Answer to Question 1
Confidentiality, integrity and Availability are known to be CIA trio which is known to be
building block of information security. Hacked Australia defence lost around 30 GB of

Confidentiality is all about understanding the fact that something is secret and not
supposed to be completely disclosed to any of the unintended people. Australian government did
not disclose the complete hack on Tuesday and came up with far scant details (Gupta, Agrawal

kind of alternation in it. Availability ensures that information is available to only the authorized
parties.
