Datagate: The Next Inevitable Corporate Disaster? 2008-04-01 McAfee

Is data leakage the next wave of impending disaster that could sweep the global enterprise landscape? In a 2007 study conducted by Datamonitor, more than 60 percent of enterprises surveyed have experienced data leakage within the last year, and 33 percent believe it could put them out of business. Data leakage has the potential to change the face of business and the global economy if it continues to go unchecked. Survey respondents see the primary threat coming from inside rather than outside the organization, although the vast majority recognize that leakage occurs to some extent on both sides of the firewall.

Implementing a Transaction Hub MDM Pattern Using IBM InfoSphere Master Data Management Server 2008-03-20 IBM

Master data such as customers, products, accounts or locations is the foundation of critical business decisions and is used in important business processes. Today, many companies have their master data scattered and inconsistent across numerous front- and back-office systems and lack a consistent, complete, and accurate enterprise view of this data. This inefficient handling of data costs businesses millions of dollar in lost revenue. Master Data Management (MDM) solves these issues and improves revenue by enabling cross- and up-sell opportunities. Implementing a MDM solution successfully requires a well-designed MDM system as a core component of the solution.

The Tangled Web of Google Health - Online Medical Records Could Change Healthcare Receivables Strategies 2008-03-20 Kaulkin Ginsberg

Several prominent web cornerstone firms, like Google and Microsoft, are pushing a system that would allow consumers' access to Personal Health Records. The medical ARM industry could both benefit and suffer by this move. The World Wide Web and the major international corporations that help users organize the way they navigate it, is on the cusp of another transformative moment in the evolution of healthcare. If anyone has picked up a newspaper - or more likely read one online - in the last month, he or she have probably encountered at least one story on Personal Health Records (PHRs) and the controversy surrounding plans by Google, Microsoft, Aetna, and other companies purportedly to give consumers more active control of their healthcare decisions.
