iPad Security Breach and Corporate Ethics
In the course of this short essay, the author will demonstrate hacking into a Web site is almost never justifiable unless the hackers are acting with a warrant and under the direction of law enforcement agencies. We will see this applied to a real world case, in which Goatse Security and Gawker Media hacked into iPAD email records stored on an AT&T server in June of 2010. In fact this is probably the best example that can be found. The author will also create a corporate ethics statement for a computer security firm that would allow activities like hacking only under the most extreme of circumstances.
In this author's viewpoint, if hacking results at all, the perpetrator must be able to defend himself in front of a judge or the police because it is a basic violation of the sacred right of privacy. Furthermore, this author maintains that it is important for organizations like Gawker Media to be socially responsible and we will consider (based on this incident) what factors chat chief executive officers (CEOs) should consider when responding to a security breach. Finally, the author will create an email script to be sent to AT&T customers informing them of the security breach and a plan to resolve the issue, explaining the rationale in the process.

The fact that a group of hackers embarrassed him and made his company's responsible policy a laughing stock does not make him wrong. Considering that he is a spokesman for Gawker really says it all. This upstart company seeks to profit from tech voyeurism and has the gall to thumb their nose at responsible party's who has made good faith efforts to guard their clients' privacy agaist just such stupidty (Tate, 2010, June 10). Certainly, it points to the sad lack of social responsibility amongst business and society in general with reference to the issue of privacy and the protection of private...
