The corporate board of directors has asked you to provide a portfolio of your research into the expansion of the company into the country you presented on in Wk 4.
Include an overall corporate code of ethics based on your review of professional associations, such as IEEE, ACM, SANS, ISACA, ASIS, and ISC(2). Include the following in your portfolio:
Based on the ethical challenges identified in Wk 4, choose and depict 2 risks to the corporation related to each challenge in a 1-page table using either
Microsoft® Word, Microsoft® PowerPoint®, or Microsoft® Excel.
A 1- to 2-page corporate code of ethics using Microsoft® Word based on your review of professional associations, such as IEEE, ACM, SANS, ISACA, ASIS,
and ISC(2), and the ethical challenges identified
A 1- to 2-page concise synopsis of classical ethical theories
A 1- to 2-page process to logically evaluate ethical dilemmas as they arise with the expansion of the company into the country you have chosen. Ensure that
the process reflects the code of ethics you provide; for example, your process could start with identifying which part of the code applies to a particular new
dilemma and move through assessing the various choices you could make, along with any resulting consequences. The end goal is to help your corporation
manage complex ethical questions with a variety of stakeholders.
