EARLY LAUNCHMoreover, the project manager insists on encrypting the project, as it preventsunauthorized accessibility. Encryption is basically a process of encoding the project in a wayso that only the authorized people would be able to access it. It not only preventsunauthorized interference but also helps maintaining the secrecy of customers’ personalinformation. Therefore, delivering project without encryption is risky and company may facesevere consequences which include security issues (Bose 2012).Q4. Who is affected?A project without encryption is risky for the company, its associates and also thecustomers who will use the software. It will question their security issues. Encryption needsto be done for any project in order to prevent unauthorized accessibility (Markham &Buchanan 2012). The program director insisted to submit the project beforehand in order toreceive more contracts from the company. This idea backfired, as the company got affected.The company and its associates’ personal information got leaked, along with severalcustomers who used the software as encryption was not done. This drew the attention ofmedia, questioning the Willis Group (Ciulla 2014).In order to gain more contracts, companies may undertake certain wrong policies,which causes harm to a huge number of people. Companies may suffer severe losses astheir reputation gets marred and they may end up getting no contracts at all (Schwalbe2015).Q5. What are the ethical issues and their implications?The main issue is delivering the Willis project early, without encryption, in order to get more contracts from the group. According to the program director, the project’s net worth is three million dollars, which would bring in huge profit for the company. Along with that the company’s associates would also get lucrative bonuses, which is advantageous for the company itself (Bose 2012). At the same time, it has a dark side also. Early delivery of the project will lack encryption and can cause great damage to the company, its associates as well as the users. Therefore, here lies the ethical dilemma, whether to think about the company’s and its associates’ benefits or the security at large. Moreover, it will hamper the company’s image as it may end up suffering severe consequences (Markham & Buchanan 2012).Your Name
