In today’s enterprise, the IT manager’s role is expanding with the organization’s need for controlling the availability and security of its information assets. IT managers must now become expert in areas that were not traditionally part of the technology management discipline. While organizations still look to IT managers for technical expertise, new regulations and accounting processes compel enterprises to maintain real-time asset information and tighter controls. The IT manager is now directly accountable for security, compliance and operational efficiency – all while reducing the Total Cost of Ownership.
