Integrity of data values is the degree of absence, loss or corruption of data values.

• Other aspects of data security are confidentiality and accessibility (CIA).
• Integrity can also be regarded as a characteristic of software and hardware (infrastructure), which is relevant in the context of data security.

A hacker or a technical problem can decrease the integrity of data by deleting, changing or damaging data.
