Security

Inarguably, the most critical role of any IT manager to ensure the company’s IT systems and infrastructure are safe and secure. This requires that you, as an IT manager, must have detailed knowledge of not just the IT systems, but also the physical environment of your company and the critical business functions that must be sustained. New threats to IT security arise daily ranging from employee misuse, to weather-related outages to malicious attacks and it not only falls on you to have the safeguards in place to prevent disasters from occurring, but to also have policies and procedures in place in the event they do occur.
