Purpose of IT department -
Answer
-User support-enable employees
-Data and information management-build systems to enable storage, retrieval,
analysis, and use of organization data and information with an eye on disaster
recovery and business continuity to mitigate the high costs of losing data.
-Networks support communication between the elements of an IT system
-Systems Integration -Vendors provide IT equipment, software, and services. The
deployment of those systems in an organization often requires setting up and
, configuring the product to align with the specific organizational needs and to
integrate with other systems already in use.
Quiz_________________?
Core Components of IT Software -
Answer
-Software Development-Software systems implement various algorithms that
transform data from one form into another, perform calculations, manipulate files,
or complete other tasks that may be repetitive, time-consuming, or dangerous to
an employee. A few examples of tasks software systems perform include
controlling the movements of industrial robotic arms, sending emails, and editing
text.
-Business Analysis-Organizations benefit from improving and optimizing their
operations. With the rapid changes in the IT field, organizations must constantly
investigate, assess, and plan for new or replacement systems provided by vendors
or developed internally. Organizations analyze their processes, then assess
current and anticipated needs for gaps that technology can fill.
-Security-Business decisions often rely on sensitive data that should only be
handled by specific parties. Unauthorized access could result in data loss or
modifications, exposure of data to competitors, or disruptions in availability that
affect the normal course of the business.
