Integrity: the future threat
Security concerns have been shifting over the years: first on availability, later -in recent years- to confidentiality, and we totally agree with what David Lacey, one of the leading authorities in Information Security Management thinks.
As final users, we see the importance of data integrity only after an attack has occurred, or data has been tampered with. The impact of any change -be it malitious or accidental- is huge. Today, data integrity is percieved more as a “nice to have” than a “must have”… rarely enough stress is put in this.
Gradually people and enforcers are realising the potencial danger associated to “false proofs”. We in Kinamik believe that data integrity will be, quoting Mr. Lacey, “the next big threat”.
