Crucial Questions

How are small businesses using mobile technology?73% for Social Media

Marketing– Constant Contact Mobile Technology Survey, 2013

43% spend 6 hours or more each week

– Joy Mali 2013

How much time do they spend on Social Media?

Social Media

Who has responsibility? Do you have a plan for handling negative

publicity? Do you have a Social Media policy? Have employees been trained?

“For every rogue employee saying something stupid to the media, there’s a poor senior-level decision being made.”

– Christopher Jones, The 9 Golden Rules for Dealing With Bad Publicity

$114 billion Annually – 69% of which is done through Malware

– http://cybercrimestatistics.com/

What is the cost of Cyber Crime?

“researchers discovered they could “easily bypass” Android security mechanisms and “answer incoming calls without the user or the system’s knowledge.”

– Computerworld, May 6, 2015

How safe are Mobile devices?

Cyber Crime

Are Mobile devices being tracked?

Can mobile devices be wiped if lost or stolen?

Is there a permitted use policy?

Do you have a BYOD policy?

Are employees regularly trained on security?

Massachusetts 201 CMR 17.00: Standards for The Protection of Personal Information

HIPAA – Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act

HITECH – Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act

PCI – Payment Card Industry compliance

FISMA – Federal Information Security Management Act

Regulatory Compliance?

Compliance

Is there a process in place?

Is it reviewed on a regular basis?

Has responsibility been assigned (i.e. Compliance Officer)?

Are employees regularly trained?

Ignorance is not a defense!

So?

Lack of Visibility – Nobody really knows what is being worked on. Misaligned Priorities – Everyone complains because “their” project is

not being worked on. ROI – My IT costs are a couple of big numbers. How do I measure my

ROI on specific investments?

Does this sound familiar?

Business Strategy & Planning

Is someone from IT part of the strategy & planning process?

Does IT have an equal say?

Is IT embedded in the thought process?

Resources

How technology literate is your workforce?

How is the hiring process affected?

How is employee productivity impacted?

What kind of training are you providing?

– Peter Drucker

Efficiency is doing things right.

Governance

Is there a framework in place to ensure IT aligns with business strategy?

Is the growth & profitability of every initiative understood?

Is there visibility? You can’t manage what you can’t see.

Is return on investment being measured?

Repeatability – Time is Money!

. . . . but do we like the answers?

We need to ask ourselves the crucial questions, . . .

. . . . be a leader in the paradigm

shift!
