    Are We Still on Track with Our Responsibility Strategy? Introducing an Internal Assessment of Corporate Digital Responsibility Engagement
    (INFORMATIK 2024, 2024) Carl, K. Valerie; Hauer, Marc P.; Arnold, Thomas
    Digitalization holds chances for companies and consumers, but also threats and risks that emerge or intensify in the digital setting. The concept of Corporate Digital Responsibility (CDR) supports companies in a comprehensive approach to responsibility engagement in the digital world, thus enabling them to address emerging or intensifying challenges adequately. To date, the conceptualization of CDR is converging increasingly, and companies are already pursuing CDR engagement in practice. As of now, tools and approaches lack that support the internal assessment of CDR engagement, a gap this study aims to diminish. This work-in-progress introduces a benchmark corpus for the internal assessment of CDR engagement and a corresponding online tool to facilitate the evaluation of a potential CDR strategy, respectively, fulfillment in practice and ultimately paving the way for auditing and certifying CDR engagement.

    Artificial Intelligence-Based Assistance Systems for Environmental Sustainability in Smart Homes: A Systematic Literature Review on Requirements and Future Directions
    (INFORMATIK 2024, 2024) Brîncoveanu, Constantin; Carl, K. Valerie; Binz, Simon; Weiher, Moritz-Andre; Thomas, Oliver; Hinz, Oliver
    Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly being utilized to promote sustainable behavior, particularly in the context of smart homes. Such solutions can significantly enhance resource consumption sustainability by leveraging data analysis for ecological benefits. This systematic literature review examines the requirements for data-driven AI applications aimed at improving environmental sustainability in smart homes, based on an analysis of 60 selected papers. Key findings include the importance of predictive analytics, privacy and security, context-aware features, real-time monitoring, interoperability, efficiency strategies, personalized user engagement, user interface design, and behavioral aspects. We highlight technological advancements that facilitate more comprehensive applications and identify the need for integrating diverse features to build consumer trust and acceptance. This review provides an overview of current smart home technologies and suggests future research directions to enhance energy efficiency, user comfort, and environmental sustainability.

    Corporate Digital Responsibility and the current Corporate Social Responsibility standard: An analysis of applicability
    (Open Identity Summit 2022, 2022) Carl, K. Valerie; Zilcher, Timothy M. C.; Hinz, Oliver
    Corporate Digital Responsibility (CDR) takes a key role in developing, deploying, and managing digital technologies, products, and services responsibly and ethically. New technologies offer new chances but also expose new threats, especially related to privacy and data security that managers need to cope with. CDR puts privacy and data security attempts in a broader context to provide a more holistic approach to Corporate Responsibilities and to strengthen consumer trust in corporate activities. However, managers still face a lack of CDR guidelines that support the implementation of CDR activities. Existing guidelines related to Corporate Responsibilities, like the ISO standard 26000, provide guidance on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) addressing socially responsible and sustainable behaviour. However, current standards do not cover CDR directly. As such, the purpose of this contribution is to evaluate the applicability of the existing CSR standard to CDR to pave the way for CDR standardization in the future

    Corporate Digital Responsibility: Evaluating Privacy and Data Security Activities on Company-level
    (INFORMATIK 2021, 2021) Carl, K. Valerie
    The digital economy holds new opportunities for value creation but also threats for both companies and customers. Within this setting, the concept of Corporate Digital Responsibility (CDR) gains traction. Building on the well-established concept of Corporate Social Responsibility, CDR entails a set of principles through which it seeks to ensure an ethical and responsible development, deployment, and use of digital technologies. To date, the scholarly conceptualization of CDR is still in its infancy. This study pursues two main objectives: Firstly, it seeks to contribute to CDR theory by providing a more in-depth conceptualization with focus on privacy and data security. Secondly, this study provides first guidance for the evaluation of CDR activities on company-level, a benchmark corpus. As work-in-progress, the focus lies on identifying a starting point for the evaluation of CDR activities concentrating on privacy and data security, and hence research opportunities related to this assessment in future.

    Data Privacy and Security in the Context of Corporate Digital Responsibility:A Scoping Review
    (INFORMATIK 2023 - Designing Futures: Zukünfte gestalten, 2023) Carl, K. Valerie
    The continuous digitalization affects private and professional lives alike, providing new chances but also threats for companies, consumers, and society. Particularly data privacy and security risks remain central for consumers. In this evolving setting, the concept of Corporate Digital Responsibility (CDR) gains traction. CDR provides a framework for the responsible application of digital technologies, thereby putting, inter alia, data privacy and security in a larger context. A remarkable amount of prior Information Systems (IS) research can be linked to facets of the concept of CDR. Hence, this study pursues the goal to evaluate the comprehensiveness of current research in IS, also guiding future research efforts. To address this goal, this study grounds on a scoping review to evaluate previous popularity in IS research. The results illustrate a need for a more comprehensive view on data privacy and security in the larger context of CDR in the IS discipline.

    How to promote the spread of data-driven business models by involving all relevant stakeholders? The case of the pay-per-stress model
    (INFORMATIK 2024, 2024) Carl, K. Valerie; Brîncoveanu, Constantin; Hinz, Oliver
    Sustainable practices change businesses in various domains, leveraging digitalization and the according spread of sensor technology and connectivity. In this context, data-driven business models emerge that foster sustainability. Despite the potential benefits of such emerging business models, adoption has been limited. To foster their spread, every affected stakeholder group must benefit. Hence, this study investigates potential incentives to adopt data-driven business models, particularly pay-per-stress, considering all affected stakeholder groups. We examine pay-per-stress in the context of the manufacturing industry, accordingly considering manufacturers, lessors, and lessees. Through semi-structured interviews with 19 experts stemming from those three stakeholder groups, we identify a potential incentive system for enabling more wide-spread adoption. This research contributes to understanding the incentivization of data-driven business models that foster more sustainability by encouraging a use of leased products that enables longer lifespans.
