Chapter 4

Activity 1.

1. Professional ethics may be understood as professionally acknowledged


measures of individual and business conduct, values, and guiding
principles. Professional ethics is nothing but a code of conduct applicable
to different professions and is set up by the expert members of such
profession or professional organizations. Ethics of doing is based on one's
political thinking. Ethics of being is based on an individuals way of moral
thinking.

2. The rise of various unique, or uniquely transformed, ethical issues


supports the claim that computer ethics deserves to be regarded as an
academic field in its own right. Some of these issues are unique because
they inherit the unique properties of the technology that generates or
transforms them. The Ten Commandments of computer ethics have been
defined by the Computer Ethics

Institute.

 Thou shalt not interfere with other people's computer work:
 Thou shalt not snoop around in other people's files:
 Thou shalt not use a computer to steal:

3. 3.1 No

3.2 yes

4. 4.1 Being a professional suggests things such as being qualified


(however defined) and practicing in a definable area, having expertise
based on a deep level of knowledge, and having a commitment to the area
of practice - possibly (but not necessarily) through being a member of a
relevant professional body.

4.2 Professionalism is a powerful quality. It allows you to fulfill your role to


the best of your ability. It helps you to impress and inspire others. And it
gives you a deep sense of satisfaction and self-worth.

4.5

4.6 Your career objective should serve as the entree to a main course, that
is, a concise and compelling introduction to

your resume which tells employers why they should hire you over anyone
else.

4.7 We’ve all heard the word “professionalism,” and we know it’s tied to
being professional—but what exactly does that mean? It’s important to
understand professionalism, because being professional can take you
places in your career—and being unprofessional can cost you your dream
job. So, in this guide, we’ll examine what professionalism looks like in the
workplace, how to demonstrate it, and the big dos and don’ts of being
professional.

5. So yes, computing is a profession, and we should proudly embrace the


responsibility. We should welcome, educate, and mentor new generations
not just as "coders" and “hackers" or programmers, but as computing
professionals.

6.When it comes to building a career, developing your ability to foster


professional relationships while working on the job can help you create a
solid foundation for growing in your role. Those relationships can also be
vital in your job education and experiences as you climb the ladder.

7. Client relationships describe a relationship between a provider of a


product or service and the client. These professional relationships are
generally more formal because businesses often show their clients
additional care in order to retain them as a customer.

8. This relationship is usually shaped by law, but the law (or people who
makes them) can not foresee everything - consider Carl’s case. If Society
licenses a professional society then the professional society:

 Must serve the interests of Society in general


 Certainly must not harm Society
 Must maintain itself
 Must take DUE CARE based on the special knowledge it processes.

9. Professional relationships are important because they encourage a


healthier and safer work environment where everyone can work together
with minimal conflict. Professional relationships also help to maintain
boundaries. Managing your boundaries and keeping a relationship
professional can help to keep everyone focused on their projects and
responsibilities.

10. 10.1 Yes he is responsible for this.

10.2 The development of the atomic bomb concentrated unimaginable power in the
hands of one government, who then had to wrestle with the decision to use it. Today’s
digital technologies have created new categories of ethical dilemmas. Organizational
leaders are responsible for ensuring that computer systems enhance, not degrade, the
quality of working life. When implementing a computer system, organizations must
consider the personal and professional development, physical safety, and human
dignity of all workers. Appropriate human-computer ergonomic standards should be
considered in system design and in the workplace.

11. 11.1 Yes Administration is responsible with this.

11.2 Yes, as long as there was that liability. You can’t get a corporation to
do anything until they’re liable for it. They spent a lot of money to fix a very
real problem for them. Corporate boardrooms understood that, if they were
proven negligent or they didn’t exercise “due diligence,” that it wasn’t the
corporation that would fail.

11.3 You can be sued for damages in software development if your


application crashes and causes physical injuries, property damage, or
financial harm. Any company can be held responsible for damage caused
by a manufacturing defect or defective product.

12. Accountability is literally the ability and/or duty to report (or give account
of) on events, tasks, and experiences. Whereas responsibility is an ongoing
duty to complete the task at hand, accountability is what happens after a
situation occurs. It is how a person responds and takes ownership of the
results of a task. An example of accountability is when an employee admits
an error she made on a project. When an employee is given the task of
making sure a project goes right and knows she will be blamed if it doesn’t,
she can also be said to have accountability for the project.

13. Your ability to maintain professional integrity in the workplace has a


powerful impact on your productivity, performance and reputation.
Behaving with professional integrity takes practice, strength of character
and self-awareness. In this article, we will evaluate why professional
integrity is so important in the workplace and share some tips to help you
maintain your own integrity and even create a culture of integrity throughout
an entire organization.

14. In the general sense, the term negligence means the act of being
careless and in the legal sense, it signifies the failure to exercise a
standard of care which the doer as a reasonable man should have
exercised in a particular situation. For example, the National Center for
Computer Crime Data published a document Summarizing computer crime
and information system crime statistics. This report shows The number of
computer crimes in various jurisdictions, the demographic makeup of the
Computer criminals, and average losses. The national media have
presented extensive Coverage on some of the more newsworthy threats:
viruses, hackers, and worms, which Account for an estimated 2% to 5% of
the threats to information security. Yet, as shown in Exhibit 1, employee
accidents and error account for 55% of known threats; dishonest or
Disgruntled employees account for 25%; and natural disasters, fire, floods,
and earthquakes Account for 20%.Although these represent a vastly higher
percentage of known security Threats, they receive little attention beyond
information security literature.
