Configuration management is the final aspect of managing maintenance. It is “the process of ensuring that only authorized changes are made to a system” (Valacich & George, 2020, p. 505). Product design engineers manage the configuration of their products by using programming code to construct the system that represents the baseline modules after they implement and install the system. Baseline modules are “software modules that have been tested, documented, and approved to be included in the most recently created version of a system” (Valacich & George, 2020, p. 505). These modules need to pass the organization’s quality assurance process and documentation standards. They need to go through a formal check-in process to be able to reside in the library. A similar practice system librarians do is monitoring the checking out and checking in of the baseline source code modules for a system when a new system is being developed or an old system is being maintained.

I believe that since my organization is still very small our guideline regarding to protecting the organization intellectual property and implementing data security is not as strict. We do require mandatory set-up for our lastpass software in order to force our employees to save their password for all the software in there. We do have a security team that is in charge of the organization IP and data security. Our IT team is only one person so therefore most employee will download and update their software themselves. We do also send out monthly data security email to make sure everyone keeps their software update and reminder on some IT updates. We also have a software to help protect data security and has a sample spam email sent out to make sure all employee knows what to do if there are spam emails that can lead to data threat.
