Cybersecurity Ethics

This course examines ethical issues relevant to ethics for cybersecurity professionals, including privacy, professional code of conduct, practical conflicts between engineering ethics and business practices, individual and corporate social responsibility, ethical hacking, information warfare, and cyberwarfare. Students will gain a broad understanding of central issues in cyberethics and the ways that fundamental ethical theories relate to these core issues.

Below are a couple of papers I have written for PHIL 355E. The first one is a reflection writing assignment, where I go over a couple of things I have learned throughout the course. The second paper is a case analysis that analyzes the ethics of Google Street View. The third and final paper is another case analysis that goes over the Code of Ethics and analyzes an example of a man who wrote code for an unethical pharmaceutical drug, which was found to be very unhealthy.
