Section A: Problem-Solving Activities

1. An information security manager routinely monitored the web surfing among her company’s employees. She discovered that many employees were visiting the “sinful six” websites (Note: The sinful six are websites with material related to pornography, gambling, hate, illegal activities, tastelessness and violence). She then prepared a list of the employees and their surfing histories and gave the list to management. Some managers punished their employees. Some employees, in turn, objected to the monitoring, claiming that they should have a right to privacy
