⚡ 30-Second Revision

  • Confidentiality: disclosure; integrity: alteration; availability: access.
  • Two links can share one failure point.
  • CERT-In: 70B; NCIIPC: 70A.
  • 2024 CSF 2.0 adds Govern.
  • A backup is useful when restoration is tested.

2-Minute Revision

Networks combine physical infrastructure, software, identities and organisational responsibility. Security protects confidentiality, integrity and availability; resilience sustains or restores essential services. Examine shared dependencies before counting backups, and distinguish incident response from critical-infrastructure protection and criminal investigation.

5-Minute Revision

An emergency service has two connections that enter the building through one damaged route. Explain why its redundancy failed, identify the affected security property, and propose an outcome-based test for the replacement arrangement without prescribing an operational attack method.
