Abstract

Ethical competence is considered a fundamental requirement for the daily practice of cybersecurity professionals. As of now, there is a lack of comprehensive research on ethical competence in cybersecurity organisations. The acquisition of ethical competence skills is imperative for effectively addressing the ethical intricacies and obstacles arising from the advent of advanced technologies and digital transformation in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0). This paper aims to conduct an in-depth survey of the literature on artificial Intelligence and emotional intelligence skills necessary to address both current and future technological demands effectively.
