Managing IT in einer digitalen Welt: Zusammenhänge der IT verstehen und die Kriterien für eine erfolgreiche Transformation beherrschen
by Lionel PilorgetDie IT ist für viele Unternehmen unersetzbar geworden. Die Digitalisierung, die in der Zwischenzeit sich verbreitet hat und die Gesellschaft immer weiter prägt, bleibt eine Priorität für viele Unternehmen. Nun hat die Komplexität zugenommen. Es sei die Wahl eines nachhaltigen Partners für eine Cloud Transformation, die Garantie, dass neue digitale Lösungen absolut sicher sind, oder das Angebot eines modernen Arbeitsplatzes, wo Home Office selbstverständlich ist. Entscheidend und gleichzeitig herausfordernd ist die Tatsache, dass alle Ebenen einer IT Organisation gut zusammenarbeiten müssen, damit das Unternehmen sich erfolgreich weiterentwickeln kann. Es handelt sich um die strategische Ebene mit den entsprechenden strategischen Entscheidungen, in erster Linie "make-or-buy" Entscheide. Weiterhin muss die taktische Ebene mit der Durchführung von Projekten und Releases und gleichzeitig das Angebot von hochwertigen IT Services sehr gut funktionieren. Die operative Ebene stellt das Fundament dar, wo die Abwicklung aller Tätigkeiten des Unternehmens sichergestellt werden muss. Verfügbarkeit und Performanz sind Key. Das ganze "Haus der IT" muss in dem Kontext des Unternehmens funktionieren. Die Kultur der Organisation und die Strukturen müssen natürlich berücksichtigt werden. Um eine optimale Transformation der IT ermöglichen zu können, ist es wichtig, ein gutes Verständnis einer IT Organisation zu besitzen und die Zusammenhänge zu verstehen.

Managing Information Risk and the Economics of Security
by M. Eric JohnsonThe lifeblood of the global economy, information has become a source of growing risk as more firms maintain information online. With risks now fueled by sophisticated, organized, malicious groups, information security requires not only technology, but a clear understanding of potential risks, decision-making behaviors, and metrics for evaluating business and policy options. Managing Information Risk and the Economics of Security, an edited volume contributed by well-established researchers in the field worldwide, presents the latest research on economics driving both the risks and the solutions. Covering the implications of policy within firms and across countries, this volume provides managers and policy makers with new thinking on how to manage risk. Managing Information Risk and the Economics of Security is designed for managers, policy makers, and researchers focusing on economics of information security, as well as for advanced-level students in computer science, business management and economics.
Managing Information Risk: A Director's Guide
by Stewart MitchellThis pocket guide addresses the scope of risks involved in a modern IT system, and outlines strategies for working through the process of putting risk management at the heart of your corporate culture. This pocket guide should provide decision makers with a solid overview of the factors they need to consider and a framework for implementing a regime that suits their needs. It provides a checklist of steps that companies need to take to safeguard against various threats, highlights potential vulnerabilities and lists methodologies for mitigating against the risks. This pocket guide draws on previous works by senior security advisory bodies - in particular the US National Institute of Standards and Technology, which has produced numerous landmark 'Special Publications' on the subject, and various UK government guidelines drawn up in the wake of high- profile data breaches. UK governmental and industry white papers were also consulted during research, including interviews with security analysts and board-level risk management practitioners.
Managing Information Technology
by Francisco Castillo Korina MonosoThere are two different, interdependent components of IT that are important to a CIO: strategy, which is long-term; and tactical and operational concerns, which are short-term. Based on this distinction and its repercussions, this book clearly separates strategy from day-to-day operations and projects from operations – the two most important functions of a CIO.It starts by discussing the ideal organization of an IT department and the rationale behind it, and then goes on to debate the most pressing need – managing operations. It also explains some best industry standards and their practical implementation, and discusses project management, again highlighting the differences between the methodologies used in projects and those used in operations. A special chapter is devoted to the cutover of projects into operations, a critical aspect seldom discussed in detail. Other chapters touch on the management of IT portfolios, project governance, as well as agile project methodology,how it differs from the waterfall methodology, and when it is convenient to apply each. In this second edition, besides a number of corrections and updates throughout the text, chapter 8 on “Agile Project Management” replaces the former chapter 8 completely, and chapter 10 on “IT Security” has been newly introduced as this topic has become more and more important for both management and operations during the last six years.Taking the fundamental principles of IT service management and best practices in project management, the book offers a single, seamless reference for IT managers and professionals. It is highly practical, explaining how to apply these principles based on the author’s extensive experience in industry.

Managing Innovation in Japan
by Chihiro WatanabeWhy do some country's hi-tech firms innovate better than others? Why did hi-tech firms from the United States outperform such Japanese companies in the 1990s? Through a wealth of empirical evidence, the book compares the development trajectory of manufacturing technology and information technology both between Japanese companies and between companies based in the US, Europe, Australia, India and China. This book shows that institutional systems such as culture, tradition, consumers and local business practices play key roles in how companies develop technology. These factors also influence the very characteristics of the products that the hi-tech firms produce. With a number of case studies the author demonstrates how the most successful and innovative companies recognize these roles and incorporate them into their practices.

Managing Knowledge Networks
by J. David JohnsonThe information context of the modern organization is rapidly evolving in the face of intense global competition. Information technologies, including databases, new telecommunications systems, and software for synthesizing information, make a vast array of information available to an ever expanding number of organizational members. Management's exclusive control over knowledge is steadily declining, in part because of the downsizing of organizations and the decline of the number of layers in an organizational hierarchy. These trends, as well as issues surrounding the Web 2.0 and social networking, mean that it is increasingly important that we understand how informal knowledge networks impact the generation, capturing, storing, dissemination, and application of knowledge. This innovative book provides a thorough analysis of knowledge networks, focusing on how relationships contribute to the creation of knowledge, its distribution within organizations, how it is diffused and transferred, and how people find it and share it collaboratively.
