On his second day Danny needs to create a report of the rising trends in Virtual Reality, he pulls up an article form an International newspaper and uses the exact content for his report.

Answer 1

Answer:

Alex is not at his seat and Danny urgently requires some documents, so he logs in to Alex's computer and mails the file to himself.

Explanation:

Logging in to another employee's system without his/her consent nor informing the boss of the firm is an unethical business practice.

Alex might have some vital and private information or data on his system in which he alone must access it.

Answer 2

Logging onto Alex’s computer and mailing the file to himself is an unethical business practice Danny should avoid at work. This would be considered an invasion of privacy, as logging onto someone else’s computer, even if you’re in a rush, is generally frowned upon.
