prevents

Cryptographic controls mandate integrity mechanisms whose correct validation directly prevents CWE-354.

prevents

Secure coding standards require proper implementation and validation of checksums or MACs.

finds

Security testing can detect missing integrity validation but does not itself implement the control.

prevents

Application security requirements include integrity checks on messages and data, mitigating improper validation.

none

Network security policies may require integrity protection on transit data, indirectly addressing the weakness.
