system. One of the key stakeholders is a huge movie buff, and she has the power to promote you into a better position at the conclusion of this project. She has discovered that one of her favorite superstars lives in the State of Bliss and therefore must file income tax returns in that state. She asks you to look up the account of this movie star. What is the most appropriate response? A. Report her to the management team. B. Look up the information she has requested. Since the data is considered part of the project, there is no conflict of interest. C. You believe that tax records are public information, so you comply with the request. D. Refuse to comply with the request, citing conflict of interest and violation of confidential company data
D. Refuse to comply with the request, citing conflict of interest and violation of confidential company data
Option D is the best choice.
Answer: DExplanation: The situation presented here requires you to put the interest of the company and the confidentiality of the data above your own personal interests or those of your stakeholders. D is not the most correct response because it says you believe the information is public. This implies you haven't verified whether the data is private or public. Until you know, treat the data as confidential. In this case, the information is confidential and should be shared only with those who have a valid reason for using it.
Would suggest that she personally contact her favorite superstar.
My reponse would be d) as I have no right to look/verify the tax account of a person, unless if I am empoyed by the country's tax department and this is my responsability to do so.
