How can this affect the confidentiality of information?

A. Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed

B. Integrity cannot be guaranteed

C. Authenticity cannot be guaranteed

D. Availability cannot be guaranteed

Answer: A

Explanation:

Confidentiality is one of the security principles that states that only authorized parties should have access to information assets. Confidentiality protects the secrecy and privacy of information from unauthorized disclosure or exposure. Often, people do not pick up their prints from a shared printer. This can affect the confidentiality of information, as anyone who passes by the printer can see or take the printed documents that may contain confidential or personal information. This can lead to information leakage, identity theft, fraud, or other malicious activities. Therefore, the correct answer is A.
