PACIS 2022 Track: Cybersecurity, Privacy, and Ethical Issues

PACIS 2022 Sydney Australia ( <https://pacis2022.aisconferences.org/>

Track Description

Recent technological advancements such as analytics, artificial intelligence
(AI), internet of things (IoT), social media, and big data are rapidly
transforming our daily lives, businesses, and society at large. However, as
our dependency on technologies is ever-increasing, we are also witnessing
many unintended negative consequences related to the use of technologies,
which sometimes exceed the positive utility gained from it. From
cybersecurity perspectives, the proliferation of social media and mobile
technologies intensifies the concerns of data breaches. Criminals are
finding new ways online to conduct illegal activities like online fraud,
identity theft, and cyber terrorism. As a result, firms are actively seeking
solutions to address these cybersecurity and privacy issues, and governments
are implementing security and privacy policies. More recently, we see the
emergence of undesirable ethical issues in the use of technologies. As
exemplified by the case of Cambridge Analytica and Facebook, improper use of
consumer data has serious business implications with possible legal, social,
and political consequences. Online platforms are also criticized for some
major failures such as the spread of fake news and the reinforcement of echo
chambers, resulting in political polarization. 

As a response to these challenges, this track seeks academic contributions
that attempt to provide a better understanding of (1) the potential
security, privacy, and ethical issues in the use of technologies; (2)
consequences of these issues on individuals, businesses, and society; (3)
possible solutions to address the concerns of security, privacy, and ethical
issues while realizing the values generated by the technologies. Submitted
manuscripts can draw on any theoretical backgrounds and methodological
approaches.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

*	Data security and breaches
*	User privacy and confidentiality
*	Ethical use of data and analytics
*	Internet-enabled crimes
