If information is modified by any means other than the intentional actions of an authorized user or business process, it could have disastrous results for a business. This underscores the importance of availability controls, which prevents the inadvertent or malicious modification of information. For example, if a product-testing firm that spends many hours testing the optimal settings for a piece of safety equipment used in factories undergoes a power surge that alters the data stored in the testing database, the company might use the incorrect data to recommend equipment settings and jeopardize the safety of factory workers. True False

TRUE

Explanation:

It is correct to say that If information is modified by any means other than the intentional actions of an authorized user or business process, it could have disastrous results for a business.

This underscores the importance of availability controls, which prevents the inadvertent or malicious modification of information.

This is also true which is why information and data should be ''password-ed'' to deny unauthorized entry and access to certain sources of information should be restricted to the right category of users

For example, if a product-testing firm that spends many hours testing the optimal settings for a piece of safety equipment used in factories undergoes a power surge that alters the data stored in the testing database, the company might use the incorrect data to recommend equipment settings and jeopardize the safety of factory workers.

Definitely so, since the data stored has been altered any decision taken on it will carry produce unintended undesired negative results which could carry significant consequences
