Business ethics is the application of ethical values to business behaviour. It encompasses the people, processes, and technologies required to manage and protect data assets1. Promoting business ethics within the IT enterprise should be the primary objective because it ensures trust among internal and external stakeholders, such as customers, employees, suppliers, regulators, and society234. Trust is important because it makes cooperation possible, enhances performance, fosters engagement, and creates long-term value21. While the other options are also desirable outcomes of business ethics, they are not the primary objective. Employees acting more responsibly, corporate social responsibility, and legal and regulatory compliance are all consequences of trust-building rather than the main goal. References:
