Personal Identifiable Information (Pii)

Personal Identifiable Information (PII)
Introduction & Background
This paper will discuss Information Technology (IT) and how there is value in the philosophy about ethical issues related to IT, chiefly, though not completely, issues concerning individuality and identity management, unequivocally in terms of respect for individual privacy and the responsibility of operators who access such personal identifiable information (PII) and understand the core values of IT ethics (Dillon, 2010).
The problem to be investigated in this paper is the challenges associated with the ethical usage of Information Technology (IT) within modern corporations and the mitigating factors associated with protecting Personal Identifiable Information (PII) within society.
Many scholars claim that societies are changing due to the advancements of IT. Their primary argument is that IT is creating ethical challenges to organizations and societies (Brooks, 2010). The ethical challenges associated with IT consist of privacy violations, job reductions, personal gain, security related issues, intellectual property, fraud, etc. Brooks (2010) found that the challenges of IT (when referring to PII) is stemmed from the lack of ethical standards, while (Cone, 2008) claims that the challenges of IT is caused by the lack of social responsibility. The principle of social responsibility is that everyone within the organization (in this case we will call it XYZ Company) has the responsibility to maintain the welfare of the privacy information at their fingertips (Jennings, 2012). In contrast, the lack of computer ethics is causing societies to change due to the advancements of IT and the violations associated with the lack of computer ethics (Brooks, 2010). Computer ethics was first identified in the early 1950s, but due to the lack of proper training in the IT field in the 1950s, the topic of computer ethics was ignored. Roughly
