In a minimum of 500 words and three sources, answer the following questions:

1. Why should people care about password security?

2. Can computer hacking be justified under extraordinary circumstances? Imagine that you will have to break into a neighbor’s car in order to drive a friend, who will otherwise die, to the hospital. You are morally obligated to save a person’s life when it is in your power to do so. You are also obligated to obey the law, which forbids breaking into someone’s motor vehicle. How would your decision, in this case, be similar or different from determining whether to break into the computer database containing the medical information needed to save someone’s life? Research HIPPA. How would this affect your decision, or would it? Can this be justified in a court of law? See if you can find similar cases regarding computer hacking.

3. What is cyberstalking? Research cyberstalking/harassment by communication laws in your state. What would you do, if anything to improve the laws? There are three states that currently do not have laws. If you live in one of those states please choose a state to research. Find a case from your state (Virginia).
