“Smart Phones Will Eliminate FAX Machine” IDC. (2017). Fax Market Pulse: Trends, Growth and Opportunities. Framingham, MA: IDC. The report is based on survey by IDC to determine the current and future use of fax machines by organizations. Based on the report, 82% of the respondents indicated that fax usage within the organization was expected to remain the same or grow within the next year. Fax is seen as being deep-rooted in majority of the organizations meaning that it is deeply integrated with businesses workflow. The report concludes that the use of fax machines is still a vital communication tool and plays an important role within organizations. Its use is expected to continue even as organizations embrace digital transformation (IDC, 2017). The article does not support the hypothesis that Smart Phones Will Eliminate FAX Machines.

Confidentiality in the digital age. BMJ, 348(may09 1), g2943-g2943. http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/bmj.g2943 The article discusses confidentiality and information security within the health care system in view of the emergence of new technologies of communication such as social media, email, cloud computing, and personal technologies. Confidentiality and privacy of data is very essential in health care. The article thus discusses how the new emerging technologies affect the security and confidentiality of data.

The article thus proposes ways in which the organizations can ensure that the privacy of the information is maintained. Of note is that personal technologies such as smartphones are considered high risk with poor confidentiality while fax machines are considered low risk with high confidentiality levels.

The authors believe that fax machines will still have continued use in future due to the need of confidentiality in communication that is not guaranteed by smartphones. Sarwar, M., & Rahim, T.
