Despite the dramatic proliferation of laws, regulations and court cases that have had a profound impact on IT, there is still a lot of confusion on where legal's responsibilities stop and IT's start.
This white paper describes the growing range of legislative topics that affect IT groups and examines the practical impact of these legal developments on IT management and decision-making.
Written in a question-and-answer format, this white paper from Khan Consulting explores some of the key questions facing IT groups today, including:
-
Does the law demand that organizations use specific kinds of technology?
- Does the law punish bad IT decisions?
- How does the legal legitimacy of e-records impact IT?
- Does the law require perfection from IT?
- What are legal departments' responsibilities for IT compliance?
- What is IT's role in electronic discovery?
In each case, this high-level white paper provides clear answers and real-world examples of specific laws in practice-serving as a compelling overview of the increasingly legislative world of IT.
