Final Case Study assignment
This assignment is the same as Case Study 2 but it is now research paper. The paper
should be 7-10 pages long. You need to analyze the case from 4 stakeholder
perspectives, and you should include 1 philosophical ethical principle in your
analysis from each stakeholder perspective. You should also apply 3 rules from
Miller et al.’s 5 rules in your discussion. This should be the foundation of a
discussion of the ethical/social issues in the case from a professional perspective.
You need to write on the following topics:
See Topics Sheet. If you decide on another topic ok it with me.
Steps in Ethical Case Analysis
1. Get the facts straight. Review the case. Briefly recap the details of the case at the
beginning of your paper. You need to explain how your case is an example of e.g. Cyber
Warfare, Cyber Espionage or Cyber Crime.
2. Identify the central stakeholders in the case.
3. Identify the technical problems in the case.
4. Identify the Ethical problem or problems in the case.
5. Identify the Social problem or problems in the case.
6. Solve the technical, ethical and social problems using both technical, ethical standards.
7. Will your solution to the problem withstand criticism from the perspectives of both a
variety of Ethical principles, code of conduct, and Professionals in your field?
8. What recommendations can you make about the problems in the case based upon your
ethical analysis?
When you construct your analysis be sure and remember that we are assigning a 7-10
page analysis. With this length limitation it is important to realize that you will probably
only be able to look at the problems in the case from an IT professional’s perspective. If
you try to analyze every stakeholder perspective you will probably exceed the length
limitation.
