Ethics of Cybersecurity | Harvard University

This course introduces students to methods, controls, and frameworks to study ethics. The course examines cybersecurity professionals' ethical responsibilities at various levels and their responsibilities to companies, governments, and themselves. The course then examines decision frameworks and applies these frameworks to multiple scenarios, including the government's recent cases against cybersecurity professionals for ethical violations. The course examines the interplay of privacy, integrity, confidentiality, and legal issues. Students work together to create a professional code of conduct as part of the final project and present it to the class.
