Cyber Law and Professional Ethics BY: DIWAKAR UPADHYAYA
An Overview of Ethics, Ethics for IT Workers and IT Users
Ethics Ethics in technology, simply put, refers to moral principles that govern how technologies should be used. These principles include accountability, digital rights, privacy, freedom, data protection, online behavior, and more. As new technologies become available, ethical issues are raised in an attempt to ensure that these have a positive impact on the human race and the environment. With the implementation of new technology comes an ethical duty, and it’s important that the generation who’ll be taking up these future jobs have a sound understanding of their ethical responsibilities.
Take hacking, for instance. Hacking has both negative and positive meanings, in that accessing a computer system without authorization might be illegal, but it’s also a term used for remixing or testing new ways of using computers or programs. It’s important that young people have a good understanding of how and when it’s acceptable to hack, and when and where the line is crossed.
