When integrity is lacking in a security system, _________ occurs.

a) Database hacking
b) Data deletion
c) Data tampering
d) Data leakage

Answer: c
Explanation: The term data tampering is used when integrity is compromised in any security model and checking its integrity later becomes costlier. Example: let suppose you sent $50 to an authorised person and in between a Man in the Middle (MiTM) attack takes place and the value has tampered to $500. This is how integrity is compromised.
