I believe the answer is: Integrity

Information with high integrity tend to let any unathorized person able to alter the information within the system. Compared to other form of violation, violation of integrity had the highest chance of occurrence from direct contact with authorized personnels. (in the sample above, the personnels might the one that provide the students with the key to the computers room)
