Ethical Standards I

Ethical Standards I

The American Nurses Association (ANA) created and implemented the first nationally accepted Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements. The Code of Ethics is a living document regularly updated by the ANA and establishes an ethical standard that is non-negotiable for nurses in all roles and settings.
The Code of Ethics provisions outline the nurse's duty to the patient, the healthcare team, the profession, and society. The Code's fundamental principles include advocacy,...

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures

Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...

Bullying

Bullying

A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development.

Science and Engineering Ethics

|May 1, 2014

Summary

Current cyber-security strategies fail by prioritizing state security over individual privacy. This focus on national security in cyberspace paradoxically reduces overall cyber-security and harms citizens.

Related Experiment Videos

Area of Science:

Cybersecurity and Information Security
International Relations and Political Science
Ethics and Philosophy of Information

Background:

Current cyber-security approaches are ineffective, leading to decreased security.
The prevailing focus on state-centric security neglects individual citizen security.
Cyberspace threats endanger information technology-dependent lifestyles and critical infrastructures.

Purpose of the Study:

To analyze the security dilemma in cyberspace, extending beyond state interactions.
To demonstrate how state-focused cyber-security undermines individual security and overall system resilience.
To propose a new paradigm for cyber-security policy addressing these shortcomings.

Main Methods:

Conceptual analysis of the state-centric security dilemma in cyberspace.
Examination of the impact of national security objectives (militarization, surveillance) on cyber-security.
Ethical critique of current cyber-security practices and their human impact.

Main Results:

State-focused cyber-security militarizes the domain and overrides individual human security needs.
National security applications in cyberspace, including war-fighting and mass-surveillance, paradoxically degrade global cyber-security.
Neglecting human-centric security in cyberspace creates vulnerabilities.

Conclusions:

A shift towards an individual-centric, privacy-preserving cyber-security policy is necessary.
Adopting an ethics of the infosphere, prioritizing human dignity in information, is crucial for effective cyber-security.
Cyber-security must be anti-vulnerability and grounded in privacy and data protection for genuine security.
