Cateogircal imperative (first Fmorumlation)
Act only from moral rules that you can at the same time will to be universal moral laws.
To illustrative the categorical impreative, kan poses the pborlem of an indicual ina difficult situation who must decide if he will ake a promise with the inteion of later braking it.
the translation of this moral ure couldbe :" A
A person may make a false prmoise when that is the only way to escape a difficult situation".
In order fo my false promsie ot be believed, I wan to everyone except myself to be truthfulg all the time.
Because there is a contracdition b/w wha tI wish to do and how I expect others in a similar siatuion to act.
bu whe I universalize themmoral rule, I am willing that everybody be able to break promises. I f that
were a realisty, the promises would not be believable, which means there would be no such things as a promise.
I would not be able to make a promsie to get myself out of a difficult situation.
Trying to universalize our prosposed moral rule leads to a contradiction.

The IT professional should be
aware that the Code's requirements, if applicable to a member's particular situation but not
adhered to, could be grounds for an unsatisfied client claiming professional negligence
A CODE OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT
personal conduct for each IT professionalpractising in the industry. It is applicable to all
IT porfessionals regardless of their role or speicific area of expertise.

she may keep the
the code of Professonal practice isintented as a guideline for acceptable methods of practice
within the IT industry. Because of the rapid changing nature of the IT indsutry and the wid variabetion in roles
this sectio of the code is deliberately generic
and concentrates on common areas encountered in the indsutry rthat are not influence by hardware/software/organization type.
'System' means all application involving the use of computers
A3 CONFIDENTIALITY
You must not disclose information acquired in the course of your professional work
except where consent has been obtained from the rightful legal owner or where there is
a legal or professional duty to disclose
This is applicable to most professions, but it is particularly applicable to you as an
Information Technology professional as you are likely to have access to clients'
information due to the nature of your work. You should be aware that information is the
property of the client, and must not be distributed freely or used for your personal
advantage or that of a third party without the client's consent
A2 INTEGRITY
Do not breach public trust in the profession or the specific trust of your clients and
employers
Observance of utmost honesty and integrity must underlie all your professional
decisions and actions. Circumstances will undoubtedly arise during the course of your
professional career where it may appear to be beneficial for you to deceive your client
in some way. The resultant short term gains from this type of behaviour is not
acceptable professional practice, nor is it worth eroding the confidence and trust that is
built up over the longer term.
A5 COMPETENCE
Accept only such work as you believe you are competent to perform and do not
hesitate to obtain additional expertise from appropriately qualified individuals where
advisable
You should always be aware of your own limitations and not knowingly imply that you
have competence you do not possess. This, of course, is distinct from accepting a task
of which the successful completion requires expertise additional to your own. You
cannot possibly be knowledgeable on all facets of Information Technology but you
should be able to recognise when you need additional expertise and information.
A9 PROMOTING INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
Endeavour to extend public knowledge, understanding and appreciation of Information
Technology
People, for various reasons, can often be mistrustful or demonstrate resistance when it
comes to Information Technology. Aim to promote Information Technology by
educating people as to the benefits that can be achieved through its application to their
business. You should, however, only express an opinion on a subject within your level
of competence and when it is founded on adequate knowledge and honest conviction,
and oppose any untrue, inaccurate, exaggerated or misleading statement or claims.
C13 TESTING
Specify and conduct tests to ensure that all system objectives are met to the
satisfaction of the client
It is clearly necessary for you to plan to test each program separately and then all
programs together as a complete suite, followed by the computer elements together
with the rest of the system. The objective is to prove the system functions as intended
and not merely to detect errors. The client should be involved in the testing. Refer to
Section D - Testing for further details.
10-Aug-05 Page 18 of 19
I4 CONFIDENTIALITY
Take all reasonable measures to protect confidential information from inadvertent or
deliberate improper access or use
Your responsibility for confidentiality of information is at least as great as that of
members of other professions. Just as accountants handle organisations' money
assets, you are handling organisations' data assets. The task is even more complex by
reason of the speed, capacity and facility for data exchange by computers. Frequently,
personal information will be under your control, and you should always be aware of the
spirit and letter of relevant legislation written to protect the individual. You must not use
an individual's or a client's information, obtained in the course of your professional
practice, for personal purposes or supply that information to a third party except where
required by court order or law.

Another aspect of professional assoications is compliance with ad code of conduct(Bommer et al,.1987).
Professional assoications h ave formal and published standards of professional conduct that members must adhere to. In some cases. where professional assoicatins do not prevail, the professional asoicatiosns still tend to uphold a distinct self-image and social standing as members of thie profession. therefore, a code of conduct is an instrument that guides professionals on ethical behavior. Professionals appear to comply
with such codes of conduct(Bommer et al.,1987). Ethical issues as wellas codes of conduct are formally idscusses in professional assocation meetings and professional journals. In this respect, professionals remain aware of current ethical issues and fortify compliance with ethics codes in their daily decision making.
In some cases professionals face conflicting dirctions among personal ethics, professonal codes of conduct, and corporate policies in the workplace(Bommer et al, 1987)
ethics direction applid depends on the context of the case. however, scholars agree that personal ethics, professional ethics, and corporate polices are all important in guiding ethical behavior.
in contrast,Casey(1990) aruges that ethical behavior is independent of context and that a poerson with ethical values wil behave ethcally in all stiaution.
literature suggest that coe conduct alone does not dter unethical behavior(Crown).
However, the code of conduct becomes effective whenit is accompanied by additonal fator such as the severity of the unethical behavior, existence of server sanctins ,
Code of ethics can make a signifciant contribution to organizations a they incdue awareness about ethic.Explicit code s have been found to yiedl a signifcant influence on the intention to act .

Rapid technological advancement has given rise to new ethical dilemmas and security threats, while the development of appropriate ethical codes and security measures fail to keep pace, which makes the education of computer users and professionals crucial. The Encyclopedia of Information Ethics and Security is an original, comprehensive reference source on ethical and security issues relating to the latest technologies. Covering a wide range of themes, this valuable reference tool includes topics such as computer crime, information warfare, privacy, surveillance, intellectual property and education. This encyclopedia is a useful tool for students, academics, and professionals.More »
