ITPEC FE Morning October 2019 — Question 61 of 80

CIA Triad — Availability — identify which security audit check confirms availability.

Availability means the system is accessible when needed. Managing SLA downtime levels directly measures whether the system meets its uptime commitments, making it an availability check.

Why not others:
- (a) Error checking for data entry ensures data correctness — this is an integrity control

- (b) Encryption of databases protects data from unauthorized reading — this is a confidentiality control

- (d) Prohibiting removal of external storage media prevents data leaks — this is a confidentiality control

Key rule: Map each control to CIA — availability = "is the system up and running when users need it?"
