Analyze the ethical issues and determine the legal compliance issues within the organization, as well as the social and cultural impacts of these compliance issues. You will be expected to
address the impact the incident may have had on the ethical and legal IT regulations at the time. The connection between the industry standards and the standards for informational
technology should be determined, as well as the in�uence of the cultural impact on IT and cyber communication or commerce.
Speci�cally the following critical elements must be addressed:
II. Case Analysis
a. Analyze the case to determine the ethical issues within the organization that may have led to the incident. What are these issues and why do you credit them for the incident?
b. Determine legal compliance issues within the organization that may have led to the incident or could lead to future incidents. Were there any legal and ethical standards in
existence at the time that were not followed by the organization? What were these issues and how did they impact the organization?
c. Determine the societal and cultural impact of these compliance issues. Some things to consider in your assessment include speci�c targeting of demographic groups, victimization
of certain customers, and so on.
III. Incident Impact
a. Determine the impact this incident may have had on the ethical and legal IT regulations of the time. If there were no direct results of this case, what may have been the indirect
impact and/or what was the impact of similar cases? For example, what regulatory changes resulted from this or similar cases? What is your reasoning?
b. Determine the connection between the industry standards and the standards in existence for information technology. Speci�cally, determine if the organization was lacking in
either industry-speci�c or IT-speci�c alignment with regulations that may have contributed to the incident, and provide support for your conclusions. For example, misalignment
with HIPAA laws in healthcare is an industry-speci�c deviation from standards.
c. Cultural Impact: Analyze the in�uence this incident may have had on various cultural attitudes toward IT and cybercommunication or commerce. In other words, how could this
incident impact views of information technology use ?
