CIA or AIC = Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability

This signing is done with a digital signature. A digital signature authenticates a document through math, letting the recipient know that the document was created and sent by the actual sender, and not someone else. So, it ensures [b]integrity[/b] and nonrepudiation, and it protects against forgery and tampering.
