Reducing
IT costs and ensuring safe operation with application of the portfolio
management
Livia
Alice Mozsar Kovacsne
Abstract
Large
companies need to give focus on their cost components related to their
information technology. Business growths is supported by their IT and
hundreds or thousands of applications worldwide. Top level management
needs to focus more on their information strategy and the applications
they need to manage. A structured and transparent application landscape
supports not only the current business but it also enables faster
business growth for the future as well. Structuring and organizing the
applications related to the various risks supports secure business and
information operations within a company. Capturing the applications
gives the companies an overview of their information costs and provides
the possibility of measurement and control of their IT costs elements.
Application portfolio management and information security management
are important elements of the corporate strategies.
