Abstract
Mankind has progressed a lot in the last couple of centuries, but a recent development in the field of Information Technology (IT) has revolutionized the whole world. The last two decades saw the world converging into a global village. IT is now very much a taken-forgranted part of everyday life. There are, however, many ethical issues that need to be considered and developed in IT-oriented organizations. This paper focuses on issues such as major types of IT threats, various technological developments in the field of IT for handling security-related issues of the organization, the need to implement ethics in the organization, and the philosophical issues surrounding ethics (taken from the Bhagwad Gita).
