Data must be relevant, accurate, timely and secure to produce useful information from an information system. Organizations need to ensure the appropriate data types like images, audio, video, text and numbers are available when processed. For information to be valuable it must also be relevant, accurate, timely, organized and cost-effective.
For information to be useful in decision making, the organization must improve the quality of its business information. To improve the quality of information, it must have certain characteristics and meet certain criteria.certain criteria.
This session covers topics related to data archiving and sharing. This includes data formats, metadata, controlled vocabularies, preservation, archiving and repositories.

Electronic Records Management An OverviewKen Matthews
It's estimated that more than 90% of the records being created today are electronic. Coupled with the overwhelming growth of electronic messages - most notably e-mail and instant messaging - the management of electronic records has become a critical business issue. How that information is managed has significant business, legal, and technology ramifications. Ultimately, it doesn't matter what medium is used to create, deliver, or store information when determining if content is a record and should be managed accordingly. Electronic Records Management is not a total solution – it must work in concert with good records management programs, good agency business practices, and reliable information technology infrastructures.
This presentation is intended to provide a foundation to address the challenges of effective Electronic Records Management particularly, but not exclusively in a government context.
Research Methodology: Data collection and processing MethodsSajad Ahmad Rather
The task of data collection begins after a research problem has been defined and research design/plan chalked out.
The term processing refers to the searching for patterns of relationship that exist among data-groups.

Essential Layers of IBM i Security: Security Monitoring and AuditingPrecisely
Taking a holistic view of your security profile is critical to success. Grouping together security best practices and technologies into six primary layers, where each layer overlaps with the others, provides multiple lines of defense. Should one security layer be compromised, there’s a good chance that another layer will thwart a would-be intruder.
Our final webinar in this series focuses on monitoring the IBM i and automatically alerting administrators and security officers whenever suspicious activity is detected, as well as logging all security-related events for the purposes of tracking and auditing.

2. • Data is the raw material entered into
an information system.
• If the data collected is meaningless,
then the information will have no use
either. [Garbage in = garbage out
(GIGO)]
• Organisations need to ensure that
appropriate data is available at the
time of processing.
3. • Data will be appropriate if it is:
• relevant – useful to the purpose of the
information system
• accurate – collected from a dependable
source and entered without errors
• timely – current, and kept up-to-date
• secure – protected from deliberate and
accidental damage or loss
• When data is entered into an
information system it is organised into
different data types.
4. • Data types include:
• images
• audio
• video
• text
• numbers
• Information is an important factor in
an organisation’s success.
5. • Information will be valuable if it is:
• relevant
• accurate
• timely
• organised
• cost-effective
