Information security is the practice of protecting information by mitigating information risks. It is part of information risk management. It typically involves preventing or reducing the probability of unauthorized or inappropriate access to data or the unlawful use, >disclosure, disruption, deletion, corruption, modification, inspection, recording, or devaluation of information. It also involves actions intended to reduce the adverse impacts of such incidents. Protected information may take any form, e.g., electronic or physical, tangible (e.g., paperwork), or intangible (e.g., knowledge). >Information security’s primary focus is the balanced protection of data confidentiality, integrity, and availability (also known as the ‘CIA’ triad) while maintaining a focus on efficient policy implementation, all without hampering organization productivity.
