in englischer SpracheSecurity, privacy and free data exchange have quite a contradictory relationship. However, they are mutually dependent. Security and privacy are increasingly important for data protection, system reliability, and safety. Technical solutions are manifold, but what is ethically justifiable? Using selected case studies, we will discuss possible solutions and their significance for system reliability, as well as considering the moral limits and impact on user groups. We will point out necessary structures and measures for ethically-reflected research in Austria for it to become a recognised player worldwide.
