Personal security has been an issue for a number of years. As we have become more connected, information about us (personal info, charge card data, and other information) is found nearly everywhere. What are some “best practices” we can do personally to improve our personal security and help us to minimize the risk of identity theft or other criminal activity?
Our business computer systems are many times built from very disparate systems that have different needs. This, most of the time, results in duplicate data entry, poor reporting and the inability to reliably mine data. How has IT been able to make these different systems talk to each other and allow single data entry? What are stumbling blocks to making this happen? Does an organization need to replace these disparate systems with a single SCM, ERP or CRM type system? Why or why not?
