“ As a sector , we will all benefit a lot more by collaborating ”
RAJIV PETER GROUP CHIEF INFORMATION OFFICER , NOTTING HILL GENESIS
Going on to discuss trends in tech , Peter highlights the security-related pitfalls of prolific data use . “ I think cybersecurity is definitely a trend . We ’ ve seen organisations crippled when they ’ ve experienced cyber attacks .
“ It becomes a different ball game when you start getting IoT devices and sensors in buildings collecting data . Data sets would be huge in terms of scale and there will be more places where you ' re vulnerable to being attacked , so how are we going to deal with that ? How are we going to consider security as part of that ?”
Peter also anticipates that the influx of younger generations of workers is going to elicit “ different demands ” as a result of a more focused education that encourages “ specialisation over broad knowledge ”. Combined with a move towards hybridworking , he believes that “ management will need to adapt and compromise ” to accommodate this next wave of employees . While the near-future may be uncertain , there ’ s one thing of which Rajiv Peter is certain .
“ The next few years are going to be revolutionary .” technologymagazine . com 145
