Close to two hundred of Indias leading CIOs came together
in Colombo, Sri Lanka, for Technology Senate (TS) 2004, a
four-day conference at the end of October, to familiarise
themselves with trends in and the future of information technology
in India, and to some extent, the world.
Indian
ITs finest
Indian businesses are undergoing a transition at breakneck
pace. In the 21st century, managing a global business is just
too complex: there are international currency risks, intellectual
property rights, environmental and technology issues, and
regulations that change from one market to another. There
is also an inherent need to transform and adapt global practices
to suit business needs.
Security-conscious
CIOs
A security strategist (SS) is a visionary and a leader who
conceptualises a comprehensive security strategy for an organisation,
and has the skills to implement and manage it. With these
abilities, an SS supports business strategy, helps the company
attain competitive advantage through proactive information
risk management, and enhances trust between the organisation
and its stakeholders.
