Use content from the Topic Materials and your own research to write a 750-1,000 word paper that examines how ethical and legal standards can be applied in the use and reporting of data.

In the paper, discuss how ethics, law, and the application of ethical and legal standards align with data mining and reporting best practices. Additionally, consider Colossians 1:10 (ESV), "So as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God," and the Christian worldview when formulating your ideas. Think about and include discussion of how this scripture and the principles associated with the Christian worldview support and encourage the legal and ethical use and presentation of data.

Provide specific examples of two ethical dilemmas you might encounter as a data analyst, and explain how you would address each dilemma. In your discussion, address the needs of the customer and the business and specific ways to reconcile the needs of each group when the two conflict. Integrate the Christian worldview perspective into your discussion and resolutions.
