ethical codes and what IT professionals need to commit to and mention a few general or common principles included in ethical codes.
You are a system administrator with broad access to enterprise systems. Your
supervisor has asked you to begin archiving all of the emails and web activity
logs of one of your co-workers. Typically requests of this nature are initiated
through a formal communication from your campus’s legal office. You feel that
this request is inappropriate and possibly at odds with standard campus
procedure and processes.
You raise your concerns with your supervisor, but are told that this is a sensitive
matter, and details cannot be shared with you. After thinking more about the
conversation, you had with your supervisor, you are under the impression that
you might lose your job if you persist in discussing the matter further or if you
refuse to carry out the task.
