PRESS RELEASE London, 12th February2018 – Cyber liabilities, new ways of working and today’s complex technology landscape are creating challenges that CIOs and their Boards are failing to address due to a lack of practical expertise in IT leadership, says Fifth Step CEO Darren Wray.
Who is running and monitoring your “Day to Day” IT Operations? This is something that is often taken for granted, and is so important to the day-to-day functioning of the business. It is only when there is a problem that the business realises how important the network, email and Internet access has become for the business. It is no longer acceptable to have your IT infrastructure unavailable during the business day. This covers anything from phones (latterly VOIP), company network, application systems to the Internet and the company website.
Those companies that understand and have the tools to interrogate their data will be able to identify business opportunities, such as potential growth areas, lines of business no longer performing, or perhaps to highlight areas where their exposure has now reached an increased risk level. Data is King and in this modern era where data from social media, mobile phones, websites, hobbies & lifestyles etc. is being used to influence our buying potential, it is important that your data is being used appropriately.
