“…Work in ethics education focused on training computing engineers in relevant computer ethics (Herkert 2001;Hollander 2009). Work in ethical design focused on eliminating bias (Friedman and Nissenbaum 1997), achieving privacy by design (Spiekermann and Cranor 2009), or encouraging sustainability (Froehlich et al 2010).…”

“…Encouraging the developers and technology firms responsible for shaping our increasingly sociotechnical world to consider corporate social responsibility and the ethics of their work is an ongoing, unmet challenge (Brusoni and Vaccaro 2016). Building explicit ethical reflection into technology development is a goal of researchers (Miller, Friedman, and Jancke 2007;Spiekermann and Cranor 2009;Verbeek 2006), regulators (Federal Trade Commission 2012), and many firms (Brusoni and Vaccaro 2016). There has been little research, however, to understand how developers make choices between technical features that support ethical values (e.g., privacy or fairness) over other values (e.g., efficiency or novelty).…”

Privacy is a critical challenge for corporate social responsibility in the mobile device ecosystem. Mobile application firms can collect granular and largely unregulated data about their consumers, and must make ethical decisions about how and whether to collect, store, and share these data. This paper conducts a discourse analysis of mobile application developer forums to discover when and how privacy conversations, as a representative of larger ethical debates, arise during development. It finds that online forums can be useful spaces for ethical deliberations, as developers use these spaces to define, discuss, and justify their values. It also discovers that ethical discussions in mobile development are prompted by work practices which vary considerably between iOS and Android, today's two major mobile platforms. For educators, regulators, and managers interested in encouraging more ethical discussion and deliberation in mobile development, these work practices provide a valuable point of entry. But while the triggers for privacy conversations are quite different between platforms, ultimately the justifications for privacy are similar. Developers for both platforms use moral and cautionary tales, moral evaluation, and instrumental and technical rationalization to justify and legitimize privacy as a value in mobile development. Understanding these three forms of justification for privacy is useful to educators, regulators, and managers who wish to promote ethical practices in mobile development.

“…Increasingly, an approach known as privacy by design is gaining popularity (Mayer and Narayanan 2013;Cavoukian 2012;Spiekermann and Cranor 2009). In privacy by design, privacy protection measures are built into technologies at the point of design.…”

The rapid growth of small Internet connected devices, known as the Internet of Things (IoT), is creating a new set of challenges to create secure, private infrastructures. This paper reviews the current literature on the challenges and approaches to security and privacy in the Internet of Things, with a strong focus on how these aspects are handled in IoT middleware. We focus on IoT middleware because many systems are built from existing middleware and these inherit the underlying security properties of the middleware framework. The paper is composed of three main sections. Firstly, we propose a matrix of security and privacy threats for IoT. This matrix is used as the basis of a widespread literature review aimed at identifying requirements on IoT platforms and middleware. Secondly, we present a structured literature review of the available middleware and how security is handled in these middleware approaches. We utilise the requirements from the first phase to evaluate. Finally, we draw a set of conclusions and identify further work in this area.
