Many businesses, especially those related to information technology, view data as a preeminent asset. Some assets, such as physical property and equipment are more obvious, but those that are less noticeable can be of greater value, define an organization’s image and success, and offer a competitive advantage. Information is considered such an asset and the collection, maintenance, and update of this asset is critical to an organization’s short and long-term success. Having information that is accurate, dependable, and current is often essential in a business’s day-to-day operations. For example, many businesses directly linked to the financial sector depend upon accurate and current information in order to perform daily financial transactions relating to the financial assets of many clients. Other businesses must have timely data in order to make informed decisions and allow daily operations to perform with optimum efficiency. Regardless of the business, it is necessary to preserve the integrity of the data and possess data that is current or real-time.
