Network security and data control


         To be successful in today's competitive marketplace, organizations need access to an information system that produces accurate and targeted information about customers. That information is uses by company to increase Operational excellence, to develop New products, services, and business models, to make relationship with Customer and supplier intimacy , Improved decision making  and to have Competitive advantage and for Survival.. Information is more powerful tool to run business more effective. Management information system allows us to manage the information in effective way to ensure company will get require information at the needed time. In a present senior where information is very important for each company and company are spending a lot of money to gather information, in this case the company have to provide security on their data. Organizations must care about network security and data control. Due to the globalization and online collaboration it allows organization to share information and data from anywhere, they can share information virtually from any part of the world. In this case the transfer information must be secure. If the network is not secure it is possible to hack the information by another party and they can use these information to have comparative advantage over the company. Everybody can connect through internet so it makes vital for organization to pay attention to the security of their networks. They have to make sure that the data cannot be compromised and that the data is not accessible to anyone who is not authorized to see it.
Unauthorized network access by an outside hacker or a disgruntled employee can cause damage or destruction to proprietary data, negatively affect company productivity, and impede the capability to compete. The vital information that is within the network must not be accessible to other user. If other user uses these data they can use these data against the company. Information is more powerful the more we have information the more we are stronger than other. By having information about customer and supply party, it helps to make good relationship with them. If these data are not in safe network anyone can extract the data in this case another party can use these information to damage the relationship with customers and business partners. It decrease loyalty of the customer towards the organization and raise the question on capability of a company to protect its confidential information.
Let us define the situation: the bank want to launch the new scheme after doing a long survey and collecting a huge information about customer called customer welfare program, in which customer will get certain amount of bonus on their birthday according to the deposit in the bank. If these information is accessible or hack by another bank, they may run the program before the first bank. In this case the innovation idea and time and cost of collecting those information is spent by first bank. But if it is implemented by another bank, the second bank will be more success than first one without spending money and time for research. So when the information is not secure the same information may use by another organization and they can use these data against the company. it decrease the performance of the company and it may generate the conflict on the organization so every organization must secure their information system and network system to secure their information and data. Every organization need to transfer their information more securely and they need to provide security on data. They have to build security system in the organization. Unless the better network and data security the information will not be secure. As we discuss managed information system helps organization to run business more effectively and to achieve the core competencies of the organization they must secure the information of the company and on various data which is most essential to the company. Therefore, every organization must care about network security and data control to acquire competitive advantage over rivals
