Analysis of the impact of ethical issues on the management of the access rights

Nowadays, the evolution of the information system (IS) is very fast and companies have to manage a very huge amount of sensitive and critical information. Therefore, the information system managers are urged to accurately design their IS and to provide the accurate access rights to this information. In that regards, although the advantage of this strict definition of the IS, we observe that this evolution also tends to reduce and to limit the employees' personal initiatives to act and to behave for the well-being of the company, especially in the case of professional ethical reasons. In this context, this paper takes up the challenge to show to the information security specialists the importance of addressing ethical issues along the management of the access rights and proposes a model-based technical approach to face this problem.
