Blog News

Rogue IT is more rare than rampant, CompTia found, but the threat of it seems to be encouraging closer collaboration between businesses and IT teams.

IT industry trade association CompTia released the study Building Digital Organizations, which included findings that indicate continued deep engagement of IT teams.

“The complete side-stepping of IT has gone down,” said Seth Robinson, senior director, technology analysis, CompTIA. “It certainly appears that businesses have learned their lessons, based either on missteps that have made themselves or on information gathered from others.”

According to the study, security remains a key concern businesses want IT professionals to address.

The study, based on online surveys of 650 U.S. business and technology professionals and augmented by in-depth interviews of 14 professionals, is available for download here.
