Ethics - in coding


Intentional or not...sometimes confidentiality and security are compromised - this article is probably more typical of coding errors then intent:

As a PM, we have a responsibility to ensure that some level of ethics are being followed AS WELL as ensuring that some effort is put into securing those items considered confidential. What ever information is being gathered or communicated be sure to put some thought behind the potential impacts and risks.
