Docutech’s Jean-Louis Feghali Emphasizes the Importance of Data Security in the Evolving Tech Landscape

Jean-Louis Feghali, Managing Director of Docutech Limited, has underscored the critical importance of effective data security management for organizations navigating the rapidly changing technological landscape.

Feghali pointed out that security breaches can have significant consequences at both personal and national levels.

He stressed the need for businesses to invest in solutions that effectively manage the flow of sensitive information.

“The amount of technology we use is substantial, and it can sometimes become unmanageable. Many confidential data transfers occur through tools like WhatsApp, which presents considerable security risks,” he explained.

He emphasized that the availability of security tools is essential, enhancing not only data protection but also secure connectivity at the national level.

In today’s digitized business environment, he believes that data security should be a top priority, with a focus on equipping the workforce with the knowledge and skills necessary to manage risks associated with new technologies.

“Constant training and investment in staff are crucial. Employees must be aware of potential threats and know how to use the right tools to safeguard sensitive information,” he added.

Speaking at the annual ‘Future of Work’ event organized by Docutech Limited under the theme ‘Unleashing the Power of Emerging Technologies,’ Feghali highlighted the importance of engaging with customers and keeping them informed about market trends and industry standards.

“This event provides a platform to connect with our customer base and offer valuable insights into the evolving business landscape while facilitating open communication between the company and its clients,” he said.

Feghali noted, “Technology is integral to our daily, weekly, and even hourly operations. It’s essential that we keep our customers updated on the latest developments.”

Other speakers at the event, including Clement Tettey, Cybersecurity Consultant at PWC, and Solomon Richardson, Director of Technical Services at the National Information Technology Agency (NITA), emphasized the vital role of IT in achieving sustainable growth. They highlighted the importance of aligning IT strategies with business objectives and effectively using data to enhance decision-making, thus driving efficiency and competitiveness. Richardson also discussed the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) across industries, urging businesses to prepare for its integration.

Additionally, a risk-based approach to cybersecurity was recommended to protect operations in the digital landscape. Participants were encouraged to prioritize clear communication and understanding during change management to ensure smoother transitions to new technologies.
