Technology and the Internet have created a new definition of the word connectedness. We are more connected than ever. This is due to many things, such as the adoption of digital transformation technologies like the Internet of Things, cloud computing, and big data. This interesting information came to us from ISACA in their article, “Cybersecurity Strategies to Enable Digital Trust.”

Connectedness has benefits and downsides. Together we are better, but for cybersecurity concerns it can snowball a problem extremely quickly. How do we trust our connections?

One major component of digital transformation that can be used to measure its effectiveness is digital trust, defined as consumer confidence in how data are processed, stored, and protected. The role of cybersecurity in data protection and privacy is crucial. Cybersecurity is an enabler of digital trust and a key success factor of the digital transformation journey.

Metadata makes digital content findable. Findability works only when a proper taxonomy is in place. Proper indexing against a strong standards-based taxonomy increases the findability of data. Access Innovations is one of a very small number of companies able to help its clients generate ANSI/ISO/W3C-compliant taxonomies.
