\u00a0case study:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Company X has just signed a business agreement with Company Y, which entitles both of them to access each other clients\u2019 records. Faisal, a software programmer at Company Z, was assigned the task of developing a software program that handles the access and retrieval of records from each Company\u2019s database system into the other. A first run of the software on real data indicated that the work was well within the state of the art, and no difficulties were found or anticipated.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Several weeks later and during a normal test on the software developed, Faisal discovered a serious \u2018security hole\u2019 in the database system of Company Y by which hackers can easily obtain confidential information about clients. He was convinced that while the software he developed could correctly accomplish the task, the code in Company Y\u2019s database system could not be trusted as the security hole posed a threat even on Company X\u2019s database system. Faisal told his manager about the problem and explained its significance. The manager’s response was, “That’s not our problem; let’s just be sure that our software functions properly.” Faisal is not sure what to do. Refusing to work on the project means disobeying his manager\u2019s orders. Continuing to work on the project, means disobeying one of God\u2019s commands, which requires him to be truthful and sincere in his dealings.

case study2:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Nirmal is the IT manager in a government department with more than 500 staff members and six branches across Australia. His department has decided to acquire an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. An RFT for the procurement of the software was advertised in a number of Australian newspapers. Two local companies responded to the advertisement and sent their offers to the department. When Nirmal opened the envelopes and examined the offers he found that company A\u2019s offer is slightly better than company B\u2019s offer. To his surprise, company B\u2019s offer was made by his best friend Devraj, who is the general manager of company B. Company A\u2019s software appeared to be easier to use and easier to modify compared to company B\u2019s software. Although the initial cost of company B\u2019 software appeared to be less than that of company\u2019s A, the former may require some \u2018tools-consultants\u2019 to modify it and some \u2018business-consultants\u2019 to assist in running it, which might eventually raise the total cost. To complicate matters more, Nirmal received a phone call from Devraj, who urged him to favour his offer, as he is quite desperate to get this deal. He also reminded him that the \u2018tools and business consultants\u2019 who might be needed in the project will be recruited from his home country which means more jobs for his countrymen and in turn more money sent home. Nirmal is indeed in a difficult position.
