Answer the following scenarios. All information included.

Suppose Iris discovers an element of the IT strategic plan stating that IT will reduce costs by implementing a specific new technology. Suppose also that Iris knows that technology has not been shown to reduce costs even though it does improve the quality of IT services. Should Iris challengeMike on this issue, or should she leave that subject alone ? Is she ethically obligated to raise this issue with higher management?

Suppose that Cassandra, the CEO's executive assistant, was involved in the criminal activity of selling company data. Also suppose that when the anonymous tip came in, she deleted the message without bringing it to anyone else's attention. Cassandra's assignment is to delete any and all messages deemed to be "noise" or a nuisance and then bring the remaining messages to the attention of the CEO. By deleting the message that Iris would have received, is Cassandra's act unethical? Is it illegal?
