#HDIchat Recap: What Role Does the Service Desk Play in Information Security?

Last week, #HDIchat took on the topic of information security and the service desk’s role. What kind of relationship exists between the information security office and the service desk? How are callers for a password reset identified? How does the service desk find out about new security threats and policies? How would you answer these questions? Can you start a conversation in your organization about information security and support’s role?

Read the recap to hear what participants had to say, and then keep the conversation going on HDIConnect!

Join us again this Friday, September 16, for our next #HDIchat (topic: sought-after skills for the support center)!
