Explanation should include the

definition of the CIA triad as a model designed to guide policies for information security within an organization

confidentiality–a set of rules that limits access to information
integrity–the assurance that the information is trustworthy and accurate
availability–a guarantee of reliable access to the information by authorized people

intentional falsification of data to disrupt crop, livestock, or poultry sectors
introduction of rogue data into a sensor network, which damages a crop, herd, flock, or process

potential for human error (e.g., accidental deletion of data)
physical access vulnerabilities (e.g., disrupting/damaging data delivery)
distributed denial-of-service (DDoS)
timing of equipment availability
space-based and ground-based disruption to positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT)
disruption to communication networks
foreign supply chain access to equipment used in PA
smart livestock production facility failure.

Process/Skill Questions:

Why is CIA important in PA?
Which component of the CIA triad model is affected by a denial-of-service (DoS) attack?
What does the term integrity mean as it relates to computer security?
How would a cyberattack (e.g., modification of a computer program/algorithm) on a food–processing critical control point (e.g., fluid milk pasteurization temperature/time) affect food safety and influence consumer perception of the safety of the broader food supply?
