____________________ consists of “measures that protect and defend information and information systems by ensuring their availability, integrity, authentication, confidentiality, and non-repudiation. This includes providing for the restoration of information systems by incorporating protection, detection, and reaction capabilities.”

Information Risk = Threats * Vulnerabilities / _________________

Developed at Mitsubishi Electric Corp., a block cipher using a 128-bit key and 64-bit blocks, and a variable number of rounds. Designed for hardware and software implementations, and is resistant to differential and linear cryptanalysis.

This is typically used to make binary data safe to transport as strictly text.

The vast majority of compromised servers are broken as a result of this security vulnerability.
