McCann E-Investigations (McCann EI), a Texas-based computer forensics firm has released a white paper titled The Unchecked Power of the Senior Most IT Professional. This paper explores the complex issue of terminating the most senior IT professional, such as a CIO, CTO or Director of IT and what can go wrong and methods can be taken to contain the risk. “We have had cases where the senior CIO was diverting company funds to a personal account.” said Daniel Weiss, Partner at McCann E-Investigations. “It can be difficult to capture and document this evidence as the CIO has complete control of the company’s IT network and the in depth knowledge to hide the evidence.”
