“To help motivate ICT compliance, students need more education around cybersecurity risks (Snyder, 2004), the content of ICT policies, the importance of intellectual property rights (Kruger, 2003), and the ethical foundations of ICT and cybersecurity policies (Formosa et al., 2021).”

In the citing paper
“in applied ethics a more common approach, especially in an educational context, is the use of principlist frameworks (Formosa et al., 2021).”

“First, because it is by far the most common approach to cybersecurity ethics, and it is also the most common approach in other areas of applied ethics, such as bioethics ( Shea, 2020a ) and AI ethics ( Floridi and Cowls, 2019 ; Hagendorff, 2020 ).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
