Question

Your friend, Bob, owns a PR (Public Relations) firm. Bob has 25 employees located all over the world. Needless to say, they all need to stay connected.

This is what is known so far:

Bob and his employees need to stay connected regardless of their location
They do not want to pay for the international telephone charges
They need a place to store confidential data
Money is not an issue as long as there is proper justification for the expense
Phew - Now, looking at the hardware, software and other technologies in chapter 6, how would you go about helping Bob?

Answer 1

Bob and his employees need to utilize Social Media Networks for instant, cheap and real-time connection regardless of their location. For example, LinkedIn and WhatsApp platforms can ease protection and storage of information, and avoid international telephone charges in addition to provision of evidence on accountability issues.
