Ethics in this day and age of technology is a very complex and enduring conversation. With the advancements of technology continuing to keep progressing the questions of completely new ethical issues remain to arise. To continue, when I think of ethical issues that arise on the basis of storing personal information electronically about an individual you may know, I think of confidentiality, security breaches, consent, and data inaccuracy. Technology has many vulnerabilities and it makes it hard to protect your data from the wrong people like hackers who try to steal it, which is why it is important to protect it at all costs by staying educated to the highest of your abilities about cyber crimes and what tools and sources to use when in need of protection. Rolling back to ethics starting with confidentiality it is the main focus cyber specialists work the hardest on to maintain because everyone’s information deserves to be private without it being leaked or being seen when the person whose info it belongs to doesn’t want anyone to see it. This is why if you store someone’s information in an electronic device, what if it was on an app that ended up in a breach where their information could be plastered everywhere and possibly end up in the hands of a criminal like a hacker where an incident like online identity theft could happen or even stolen credit card information. It’s always important to ask for consent you never know if the person whose information you just stored in your device without them knowing feels truly comfortable with you doing those types of actions, as stated before a breach could happen and now you’re at fault because the person who thought they could trust now cannot do so anymore because you recorded their information without telling them. Lastly, a problem like data inaccuracy could have negative consequences too, for example, entering the wrong birthday, social, card information, and even medical records could lead to you or someone else in need not getting the help that’s needed which is why it’s important to always double-check and ask questions.
