01 / Mission

Know the threat.
Protect the triad.

D.A.D Triad 77 is built around two real information security concepts and one simple goal: help people become more aware of the technology and security risks around them.

The real D.A.D model

Disclosure. Alteration. Destruction.

D.A.D describes harmful outcomes that work against the CIA Triad. It is not a replacement for CIA. It helps show what can go wrong.

C

Confidentiality

Protects information from unauthorized disclosure.

I

Integrity

Protects information from unauthorized alteration.

A

Availability

Protects systems and information from destruction of access.

D.A.D = Disclosure • Alteration • Destruction. Disclosure threatens confidentiality. Alteration threatens integrity. Destruction threatens availability. D.A.D Triad 77 uses this relationship as an easy way to explain security concepts to everyday users and small businesses.
Awareness first

Fix the issue. Explain the risk.

The goal is not just to click through a problem and leave. Support should help customers understand what happened, what to watch for next time, and what basic steps can make their setup safer.
