Abstract The rapid growth of cloud computing and digital networks has transformed the way societies store, process, and share information. While these technologies offer unprecedented opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and efficiency, they also present significant ethical challenges. Issues such as data privacy, cybersecurity, intellectual property, digital divide, and professional accountability remain pressing concerns in the computing profession. This article explores these challenges through the lens of Christian ethics, emphasizing values of truth, stewardship, justice, integrity, and love of neighbor. Using the biblical metaphor of “light” as a guiding principle, the paper argues that Christian values can illuminate the ethical landscape of computing in the cloud era. By integrating biblical teachings with professional codes of conduct, it proposes a framework for Christian computing professionals to act responsibly and faithfully in a networked world. The article concludes that applying Christian perspectives to computing ethics not only enriches professional practice but also contributes to building a just, secure, and humane digital society.
