原则1:公众
软件工程师的行为应与公众利益一致。特别地,软件工程师应恰当地做到:
1.01 对自己分内工作负有全部责任
1.02 综合考虑软件工程师,雇主,客户,用户与公众的利益
1.03 软件是安全的,符合规范的,通过适当的测试,不降低生活的质量,不侵犯隐私,不对环境造成伤害;只有当以上条件都能够有充分确认,才认可这个软件。软件的终极效用应该是公益的。
1.04 把任何对用户、公众及与软件和相关文档有联系的外界人员可能造成的危害,告知相关人员或者专家。
1.05 努力合作来解决由软件及其安装、维护、支持和文档 所带来的公众关注的重要问题。

1.08 鼓励自愿将专业技能用于公益事业,促进公共学科教育的发展。
原则2:客户与雇主
软件工程师应以他们的客户和雇主最大利益化的方式做事,与公众利益一致。特别地,软件工程师应该视情况而定按如下原则工作:
2.01. 在他们的能力范围之内提供服务,诚实和坦率地对待他们经验和教育上的任何局限。
2.02. 不故意使用那些获得或保留的非法或者不道德的软件。

2.06 当员工觉得项目将要失败,要及时识别、记录、收集证据并向他们的客户或雇主报告,以证明项目失败的原因。这些原因可能是成本太高,侵犯知识产权,抑或是其它问题。
2.07 当员工意识到在软件或相关文档中涉及某些重大的社会关注问题时,要及时发现、记录并向雇主或客户汇报。
2.08 对主要的雇主负责,不接受影响本职工作的任务。
