Yesterday's Presentation on IT Ethics and Business Risk
Yesterday I did a presentation for ISACA
Atlanta entitled "From
Radicati to Oklahoma State and Beyond: IT Ethics and Business Risk".
There were about 35-40 people in attendance for this luncheon presentation.
I used up every one of the 60 minutes allotted and it seemed to be well
received. One thing I noted was that of the 35-40 audit and business control
people there, only
one had a background in system
administration or programming.
I guess this is what James
Governor of Redmonk
meant when he said that I was in a "sweet spot". I don't know
if I am convinced of this, but I do know that I really enjoy making these
presentations. I will post the presentation here in a few days. This is
one of the reasons I have not been posting lately, as I have been trying
to get this presentation and two for Admin2005
done; as well as an article on blogging
and business risk for Compliance
Solutions Advisor that I am writing
with Richard
Schwartz.
Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt (FUD) are too often used as marketing tools. And too many mainstream publications are citing reports that have no validity. So if you know anybody who is citing these publications and reports to make business decisions, please point them to one or more of these links. You can also point them to the "Fighting FUD" index of stories and/or add the "Fighting FUD" graphic link to your web site.
