Always have a process in place…and probably a back-up process too. And more importantly, make sure this process is understood and followed. This theme has come up several times in our course and in different forms. Target’s hacking scandal may have been more minor if security processes were followed, CareGroup needed a quality assurance pro…[Read more]

I think that we will see a shift in corporate structure landscapes and see growth in the open-source model, but that both types of organizations will continue to exist. With crowdsourcing and new technology, the open-sourced business model with small scale 3D printer production will offer entrepreneurial opportunities with minimal risk. This…[Read more]

I think that a certain level of fraud is a cost of doing business, but I believe that retailers with tougher security standards could benefit. As a consumer, I am more likely to shop at a retailer that I trust.

WhatsApp is definitely a useful app. I haven’t used it in a while, but I had a friend who moved to Dubai and it was a great way to keep in touch! It’s nice that it’s only 99 cents for the year. I didn’t know that and I think that my free account expired.

Although I work in IT, I am not a very “techie” person who is interested in the latest and greatest technology, software or apps. Overall, I’m probably a couple years behind most other people in my demographic on this front. I do not own a tablet or a personal computer, so I rely on my smartphone and work computer (not really the best idea)…[Read more]
