Responsibilities of the CIO
CIOs must understand the business processes thoroughly, propose innovative solutions and technology adoption, collaborate with business process owners and the leadership team, and convince as to how technology adoption can bring value to the organization and let the business process owners to lead for enhanced acceptability of the solution and to address insecurity and change management issues. The success of such projects is much more when they are taken up as Business Projects instead of IT Projects.
Key priorities for 2021
The focus in the industry has been shifted from whether we should go for digital transformation to how to go for it i.e., being digital has become the need of the hour. With fast developing new technologies, it has become imperative to adopt the same for business excellence.
Adopting Work-From Anywhere
The pandemic situation and lockdowns made organizations understand the importance of technology in running the operations smoothly. There were a lot of challenges in keeping the employees connected which were overcome using multiple solutions like providing laptops to all, VPN connectivity, need to update software upgrades, ensure AV systems are patched with latest versions, avoid phishing mails as users were connected through private internet connections and adopt innovative audio & video conferencing solutions.
Redesigning IT & Security strategy
Cybersecurity has emerged as one of the most important challenges. Government regulations are also tightening and becoming more elaborate. IT security is the responsibility of each and every employee of the organization and not just the IT team. It is important to conduct frequent workshops and awareness sessions for the employees about emerging security threats. It is important to keep an eye on social media and even the dark web to understand threat perception. Implementation of ransomware prevention solutions and keeping the systems updated are also necessary.
