Throughout your lives and when interacting with others, you may encounter or participate in situations when technology and ethics collide.
Pick 3 of the 4 topics and Write 1–2-page paper on those topics using APA formatting.
Topic 1: A federal statute requires banks to give their customers “quick access” to funds from deposited checks. Given the problems we have seen with counterfeit checks, do you think this is a good law? Carefully assess all sides of the issue. If you could influence the federal government, how would you advise it to change or improve the law?
Topic 2: Reports on computer crime (not including software piracy and hacking among computer crimes) in newspapers and journals seem to be decreasing. Do as thorough a search as you can for, say, the past six months and document the most recently reported occurrences. Does a pattern seem to emerge about the kinds of reported computer crime that are popular this year?
Topic 3: If you were the manager of a bank, how would you try to protect your bank against computerized embezzlement and fraud?
Topic 4: You run a big insurance company, and you are concerned about security. You have the opportunity to hire someone who pulled off a $4 million computer “heist” from another insurance company, has “paid his debt to society,” and is just coming off his six-month stint in jail. Would you hire him as the security expert to protect your company? Discuss.
