Answer to Question 1

The functional business unit responsible for planning, managing, and supporting information systems is often called Information Technology. Heading the department is the chief information officer (CIO). The CIO might report directly to the CEO or to another vice president, often the one responsible for finance and administration. Working with the CIO, especially in larger organizations and major companies, are more staff positions with chief in their titles, such as Chief Information Security Officer, Chief Technology Officer, and Chief Knowledge Officer. The common functional areas in an information systems department include end-user support and help desk, systems administration, operations, systems, and telecommunications and network services.
