a. Differences between ethics, organizational policies, and laws

Ethics, organizational policies, and laws dictates how one should behave. In the cybersecurity, the three aspects governs an individual access and use of the data. However, the three are significantly different. Ethics are moral principles that an individual choses to uphold in his/her day to day activities (Furlotti & Mazza, 2020). We can say that ethic are the believes that one holds as which actions are right or wrong. Organizational policies principles that organization comes up with to guide the employee while they are undertaking their organizational duties. For examples, organization policies with regard of access and sharing of data. Laws are developed by a country to guide people on how to conduct themselves (Furlotti & Mazza, 2020). These laws are different depending on where they apply. For example, those that apply to cyber and internet use are different from that apply to general conduct of the people.

b. The shopping cart software holds the ethical trends in order to achieve consumer privacy:

An ethical trend involving developers is general data protection laws with characteristics that show how transparent user data is processed. Since the shopping cart functionality contains sensitive user data, it means that website developers offer additional security (Mahliza, 2020).

-The ethical trends of privacy policies with minimum requirements are:

· Application developer.

· Data collected.

· Legal basis for collecting user data.

· The name of the third party who has access to the information.

· Consumer rights.

c.  Organizational policies that will be implemented to help protect consumer data

Privacy is a basic requirement for any website today. A privacy policy is required due to issues of data extortion, cybercrime, cyber terrorism and others (Romanou, 2018).

To protect user data from theft, all websites follow ethical privacy laws, which include restrictions on unauthorized access, security laws, and encryption.

Data protection laws should be listed on the website and easily understood by website users.

Protect user data from accidental loss and provide solutions for it.

Data protection includes data protection against theft and unauthorized access.

d. Ethical considerations for maintaining confidentiality and consumer data are:

· User privacy ethics include:

· Unauthorized people or organizations do not have access to user data.

· The right of who should have access to user data must be maintained.

· Consumer data should not be misused.

e. The various privacy regulations that uphold with the shopping cart software are:

The shopping cart follows a legal basis for collecting user data and includes the names of third parties who have access to user data.

It must not allow modification and disclosure of user data, except in some cases that depend on the software included on the shopping site.

Shopping cart software must include industry-based security measures such as:

Restricting internal access to user data, encryption and more.
