As a CIO, despite your best intentions, accidents and mistakes can happen (e.g., data can get corrupted, human error, hardware failure, etc.). Reusing or circulating inaccurate data, especially personal information, can have many negative consequences for the company, the customers, and for the CIO. Additionally, hackers and security threats can compromise the integrity of your company’s data. For your initial post, you will take on the role of a CIO and address the following elements for your company that manages the personal information for its 100,000 customers:
- Explain the importance of maintaining the accuracy of customers’ personal information.
