CIS 537, Introduction to Cyber Ethics:

This course required me to investigate the basic concepts of ethics in general, including professional codes of ethics, especially as they pertain to the management of information systems.  Some of the pitfalls of ethics were examined including compliance with laws intended to protect citizens and the need to conduct certain business transactions.  Some of these transactions may involve the risk of releasing personnel information, whereas, some may require criminal investigations.  The issue of free speech in the cyber and how it can affect a seemingly innocuous entity (worker providing selfies on Facebook and employer finding out).  Responsibilities of IT personnel with regards to uncovering unethical behavior was discussed at great length.
