Cybersecurity Risk
When technology (emails and internet access) was readily available for most, many companies remained loyal to paper and pen. Beyond the financial cost of embracing this technology, businesses were understandably concerned with compromising the quality of their services and with possible security breaches. Eventually, businesses embraced technology and recognized its power to help individuals and organizations. Technology has brought us a wealth of conveniences, including access to information that was previously inaccessible or difficult to access. The positive aspects of technology are sometimes overshadowed by its misuse, including concerns about privacy, accountability, and trust. The power of technology also revealed the danger of using technology in an unscrupulous manner which could harm those individuals and organizations.

Explain your understanding of these codes or rules that concern technology and ethics.
In light of the codes or rules that you reviewed, set forth at least three ethical rules with which you would want the company to comply so that its staff is ethical in using technology.
Discuss at least two ethical concerns discussed in the above-listed articles. What would you do to prevent any ethical violations and how would your plan be managed? What could happen if there was a violation of the ethical rules as a result of technological incompetence or deliberate misuse?
