Information technology and society: Organizations need to create special programs to control their information in the future

Organizations need to create special programs to control their information in the future, according to forecasts of the research company Gartner by 2019 90% of the companies will not be able to control their data stored on third-party IT-systems.

“While the amount of personal information increases repeatedly, people and their personal data will increasingly become a target for hackers of protection systems. And in most cases, ultimately, the organization will continue to be responsible for personal data contained in its IT-systems” - said Carsten Casper, vice president of Gartner on research issues. Karsten believes that companies need to come up with a way out of this situation by creating a special program that allows you to store information in the distance, but with full access to it.

For the development of this strategy Gatner advises to adhere to the following: to make a clear distinction between personal and non-personal information, provide it with the best protection, adhere to common standards for storage of personal information or create your own.
