Integrity — CISSP Practice Questions

Integrity is the security property that ensures information and systems are accurate, complete, and have not been improperly modified. The CISSP exam addresses integrity at both the data level (hash functions, digital signatures, checksums) and the system level (configuration management, change control, separation of duties). Threats to integrity include unauthorized modification, malware, race conditions, and man-in-the-middle attacks that alter data in transit. Candidates must distinguish integrity from authenticity and understand which cryptographic mechanisms provide integrity assurances versus confidentiality.
