CS includes information availability, identification and authentication, confidentiality, integrity, and non-repudiation as well as the economic considerations with respect to selection of CS techniques, CS processes, and industry trends.

Before Black Friday there’s often a spike in the amount of fraudulent emails claiming to offer deals and certain companies that they aren’t in order to obtain your information through the internet. They’ll often accomplish this by establishing fake domains to look like companies you know. This seems to be a larger problem in the UK rather than the US. It states in the article “six out of 10 retailers in the UK have not implicated the strictest levels of domain-based message authentication.”Although I’m sure it’s also a very large problem in the US. It’s detrimental that you ensure you’re viewing sites at the correct domain no matter where you live.
