Given the dynamic and ever-changing technological landscape of the world, we are just one click away from every impossible innovations that are yet to be created. One of the most striking innovation of today, is the wearable technology. Wearable technology includes devices that functions as accessories such as watches, eye glasses, or even jewelries. These may also be embedded in fabrics, or even implanted in the human body such as devices for tracking locations. These devices are powered by microprocessors and some of which are heightened with the capacity to send and receive information using the Internet (Kenton, 2019).

The following are some of the most notable wearable products/technology in the market:

Smartwatches such as the famous Apple Watch and popular Fitbit fitness trackers are only some of the best selling wearable technology in the market. Studies show that the market share of these products continue to advance, from end consumers to established businesses. Smartwatches not only gives a cool factor to the individuals wearing them, but these watches also help warehouse managers, for instance, to easily track and manage distribution of products across the supply chain of the business.
Smart glasses are widely used in providing health care services. Doctors and nurses are using smart glasses for fast and easy access to patient’s medical records. Thus, this technology provides health professionals with increased productivity since they can multitask enabling them to be able to attend to patients’ needs more quickly.
Smart ID badges are commonly used in offices and other establishments that require tough security. This technology provides fail-safe security to confidential files and resources located in company premises with installed ID access.

Wearables enable accurate, convenient, and efficient tracking of company data or individual’s health and activities. Wearable technology has been proven effective for fast and easy access to records or documents related to company dealings and transactions. It can also help an individual stay fit and track his or her own personal health. In addition, it can provide a fail-safe protection to facilities or workplace with confidential documents and/or information. However, wearable technology is also expensive, and it has to be charged from time to time, which can be an inconvenience to its users (most especially in cases of emergencies and the technology drains its battery). Also, a smartphone can also be used alternatively and has multiple functions than a tiny wearable device such as a smart glass or watch.

Business Intelligence (BI) is a set of technologies that convert raw data into meaningful and actionable information to drive a profitable business. BI can be used for reporting and data analytics following a three (3) step process as follows: (1) raw data from a database is extracted, for instance, data related to consumer buying decisions are extracted from survey database for analysis; (2) data is transformed into the data warehouse – this involves grouping data based on their categories, for instance, consumer buying decisions may vary depending on customer preferences, needs, and purchasing power; (3) after extracting and grouping the data, it is encoded into a BI System, which can now be used to generate reports and ask queries, for instance, if a marketer desires to track the buying decisions of customers residing in a particular place, he or she can use the BI system to do so.

Telecommunications and mobile technology networks are vital to companies because they serve as a support framework, and for some a foundation of the business. For instance, an online retail store cannot receive orders if not via mobile technology networks. Global companies located in several geographic area cannot collaborate efficiently if telecommunications did not exist.

COMPANY

CLOUD VENDOR

Communication encryption
Endpoint security
Protection against manipulation and threats during runtime.

Network security

Both the company and cloud vendor are responsible in maintaining data security. The company is responsible in communicating all new information that needs to be encrypted in the database and must ensure that all these information are absolutely correct. In addition, they must ensure that endpoints used to access cloud services are secured to authorized personnel only. Companies must also ensure that their cloud services has protection against manipulation and threats to prevent criminal activities from infiltrating their servers and database. The cloud vendor, on the other hand is responsible in maintaining network security of data through access management and support services (Gresser, 2017). The company and the cloud vendor are responsible in maintaining data security since they will be both liable in cases where a data leak, data loss, or cyber attack happens.
