According to the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ (AICPA’s) Top Technology Initiatives survey, the top 10 technology initiatives in 2008 are:

1.       Information security management

2.       Information technology (IT) governance

3.       Business continuity management and disaster recovery

4.       Privacy management

5.       Business process improvement, workflow, and process exception alerts

6.       Identity and access management

7.       Confirming to assurance and compliance standards

8.       Business intelligence

9.       Mobile and remote computing

10.     Documents, forms, content, and knowledge management

 

Information security management has topped in the list since 2003, reflecting ongoing concern by organisations about protecting key data and systems.  IT governance moved up the priority ranking to second place from sixth place last year.
