Susan to be honest it comes down to finding the right customers. Ones who are mission critical and up time is more important than cost. They value relationships and the nuances in solutions. What is driving...

@Jeff Jerome: So in this scenario, how does one even decide where to put their efforts in developing a particular area of expertise? I'm thinking especially of anyone trying to differentiate themselves in a position within...

Susan - I think almost all technologies are racing to the bottom. The manufactures are chasing volume and drives the cost way down. Plus with the products becoming more and more self discovering with auto configuration...

@Susan - luckily disaster/emergency operations in healthcare is a very mature field and there are many great experts (who are not my students) in this field.

@Jeff Jerome: "The race to the bottom where no one can make a living" --I fear your friend is right, mobile workforce management tools like the one Thomas describes here were also quite costly to deploy, and...

@Thomas: Many major transportaion, logistics, field service and field sales companies have been working with solutions that cost far far more than what Google has launched here--or are using their own homegrown solutions....

@DarrellP725: This is quite true. Although it can happen both electronically and on paper. A good friend of mine had his identity stolen at a doctor's office in Florida where he was required to write his social security...

@mhasib: Thanks for your response, much appreciated. I hope that if I'm ever in a healthcare facility during a disaster, that its recovery and continuity plans will have been developed by one of your former students!

@Ajr@m: there's probably not a single source of blame for the cyber security challenges we're facing, although I'd agree that lapses and negligence as well as the point that @DMRomano makes about companies simply not understanding...

@Zaious: complacency is indeed the biggest mistake a company (or government organization) can make when it comes to cyber security. I'm not sure what scares me more: the risk of personal data being compromised, or the risk...

@nasimson: Look forward to hearing more about your experiences and how the team responds. Legal reviews can be the death of many a good project.

@moarsauce123: what you're pinpointing really is a flaw in leadership, not a flaw in process. That is spot on. I've seen so much wheel-spinning happen in my career because of executive indecision. I can see why agile would...

@Susan - I teach an entire semester long graduate course on disaster recover and business continuity so I will not be doing justice to your question here. Most often, when EHR is unavailable other healthcare equipment will...

InformationWeek Tech Digest - July 22, 2014Sophisticated attacks demand real-time risk management and continuous monitoring. Here's how federal agencies are meeting that challenge.
Building a Mobile Business Mindset
The differences between mobile apps and conventional Windows clients, or even web applications, are far more than skin deep. Yes, the touch-versus-keyboard interface, APIs, and programming languages are new, but that’s arguably the easy part. There are profound differences in how the two are built, the functionality each prioritizes, the release cycles on which they’re developed — even the attitudes, values, and work styles of the developers creating them.
IT Salary Survey 2014: Networking
Data center managers make slightly more than networking professionals, with middle-aged men on the coasts faring best. Both staff and management are optimistic about their career paths.
