Description
Introduction to Ethics is the study of moral principles that govern human behavior, helping individuals distinguish between right and wrong. It explores fundamental concepts such as virtue, duty, consequences, and justice, guiding decision-making in personal, professional, and societal contexts. Ethical theories, including deontology, utilitarianism, and virtue ethics, provide different perspectives on moral dilemmas. In fields like information technology, ethics plays a crucial role in addressing issues such as privacy, intellectual property, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence. By understanding ethical principles, individuals and organizations can make responsible choices that promote fairness, integrity, and the well-being of society.
