First of all, it is important to under­stand what a web portal actually is. A web portal is a single website that displays desig­nated infor­mation in an organized manner. Web portals are used to bring infor­mation from all over the internet and show it all in one place for the person viewing the website to be able to access easily. A lot of the time, web portals will provide links to other web content based on the prefer­ences of the user and the type of the web portal.

The corporate infor­mation systems development is designed to achieve a consistent growth in different sections of the corporate industry and to develop a good commu­ni­cation among the members. This system has a standard framework that is used to design a project, conduct the analysis, to create a solution, and to evaluate the whole process after the completion. This system is widely used for the development and growth of any industry.

What is Corporate Infor­mation Systems Development?

The corporate infor­mation system is made to plan and design any project, its imple­men­tation, and the entire working procedure that includes all the steps for the successful imple­men­tation and completion of any project. This system helps to identify and execute business process automation initia­tives, provide technical support for a project, and for the development and mainte­nance of a project. In brief, it designs and plans the entire project from the beginning to the end that includes the design, technical support, archi­tecture activ­ities, cyber security, and analysis of the overall development. Finally, it evaluates the whole proce­dures after the imple­men­tation. Corporate infor­mation system contributes to the successful imple­men­tation of any project.

Some of the key functions of the corporate infor­mation system are following:

• The system starts working with the planning of a project. It plans and manages the design, integration, execution of the department’s corporate systems, and it offers a proper solution for the finances, accounting, procurement, human resources, budget, and perfor­mance of different systems.
• The system performs multiple roles. It manages and maintains the financial activ­ities of the projects by using cost-effective, efficient and appro­priate technology that allows the diffusion and delivery of important infor­mation related to the project.
• It helps to create compat­i­bility between different sectors of the corporate business. It facil­i­tates electronic exchange of the relevant data with both external and internal stake­holders, and develops a good commu­ni­cation with headquarter programs, operating contractors, and field or managing officers.
• The system offers profes­sional infor­mation technology management assistance.
• It maintains and controls the Cyber Security program of the CFO office.
• It designs and super­vises projects and CEO technology systems and services.
• It plans, designs, and develops training materials and system documentation.
• It controls and manages the CFO web technical commu­ni­ca­tions to guarantee conformity with regula­tions, laws, and recom­mended practices.
• It describes website standards for CFO organi­zation and offers technical assistance.
• It contributes to devel­oping a good commu­ni­cation between CFO and Chief Infor­mation Services and helps the CIO and CFO in all organi­za­tional activ­ities and technical requirements.
• It controls the CFO enter­prise Archi­tec­tural Program.
• It works as a co-chair of Corporate Business Systems Config­u­ration Control Board.
• It takes part in different external and internal infor­mation technology tasks and makes the working procedure easier.
• It manages the imple­men­tation of all external and internal CFO Infor­mation Technology reporting.

Corporate Infor­mation Systems Development works success­fully from the beginning to the completion of any project. This process can be much easier and successful through the iManage system. Many companies have already used this system to make the process simple and less time-consuming.

The modern world is a place where software and devices are part of our everyday lives. Software is every­where — insti­tu­tions, offices, factories, our homes, cities and virtual space. Advancement of technology and development of Internet of Things (IoT) is the main force behind the approach of doing things shifting from the tradi­tional way to the modern digitalized way. Today’s software has advanced in function­ality, is more reliable and secure, users, on the other hand, demand for software that is advanced and reliable to help them achieve their daily activ­ities, whether at work or home. Even with the current state of technology, there is software that does not meet user expec­ta­tions or does not offer the required security level, leaving room for security breaches. This article will look at some of the factors that affect security and relia­bility of software and factors that contribute to successful and reliable software.

Software relia­bility refers to the proba­bility of software not failing or causing incon­ve­nience for the user; it is closely related to function­ality. Reliable software is unlikely to fail on a regular basis or prevent the user from executing an operation.

Below are different attributes of reliable software

Function­ality

Software function­ality refers to the overall perfor­mance of the software. User satis­faction is largely related to the function­ality of the software; a software that is fast, stable, offers adequate security and access control, can be said to have excellent function­ality. Function­ality can be measured by how users rate the software in regards to their experience with the software.

Usability

Software Usability refers to the ease of software use. The user interface design highly affects the usability of software. A good interface is the one that provides the user with a well-defined navigation, well-organized compo­nents, is easy to use and minimizes the number of clicks to complete the task.

Efficiency

Efficiency refers to the software function­ality based on functional require­ments or speci­fi­ca­tions, gener­ating the expected and accurate results without failure.

Maintain­ability

Software mainte­nance aims at making a software perform better and become more secure. Mainte­nance addresses software perfor­mance issues, bugs and security issues.

Security

The core security requirement of modern software is to secure the user data from unautho­rized access and also maintain the user privacy. To overcome security challenges, software is built consid­ering security as one of the main objectives.

Factors impacting to relia­bility and security of software

Design Archi­tecture

Software design archi­tecture refers to a set of principles which defines an appli­cation. It dictates an abstract framework for the software system regarding the pattern of struc­tural organi­zation. The success of a software begins at the design phase of software development when the function­ality, security protocols, access control factors are designed. Software development has signif­i­cantly evolved leading to more stable and reliable design patterns, which means more advanced design archi­tec­tures have been invented to power the modern appli­ca­tions. Design patterns and design archi­tecture affect 3 crucial aspects of a software reliability.

Appli­cation Speed

The speed of executing tasks highly depends on the software design. Modern software is designed to be light­weight and swift, built with a small “memory footprint” to enhance the perfor­mance of the software even on devices that have a low processing power. Today’s software aids processing of time-sensitive tasks such as serving thousands of clients for the shortest period possible or getting a patient’s medical details on time. Software users, whether using web software, mobile apps or desktop apps, want a software that does not take too long to execute commands and tasks.

Software Perfor­mance and Stability

Most of the modern software are built with the objective of supporting multiple concurrent users. This calls for well-thought design archi­tecture that is capable of handling concurrent users without failing or causing incon­ve­nience. Some design archi­tec­tures designed in the earlier days were not oriented to support concurrent users, and this resulted in perfor­mance issues. This eventually led to the development of design patterns that are oriented towards devel­oping high-perfor­mance software, which supports multiple concurrent users. The stability of software, even when used by many users at the same time, results in more reliable perfor­mance of software that does not fail due to traffic or access by many users.

Software Security

The security of a software system starts at the design phase of the software and ends with the end user. Software design archi­tecture signif­i­cantly impacts the software security. Software security is supposed to be at the core of the modern software. End users are increas­ingly demanding for more secure software systems; this is because the data being processed in today’s software systems contain sensitive user data, the privacy of which is critical. An effective software would not be successful unless it is secure, thus security and relia­bility of software are both insep­a­rable and crucial.

User Interface (UI) and User Experience

Modern software is designed to automate complex tasks, but users are in constant look of software that both does these complex tasks and has a user-friendly interface. The user interface deter­mines the relia­bility and usability of software in a great measure. UI design patterns have been invented to present the user with a consistent experience across devices and software as well. Design philoso­phies like material design by Google provide designers with design principles that help them create apps that have a consistent experience with mobile, web and desktops appli­ca­tions. Software made in the earlier days lacked the consistent look and experience, hence users had to learn to use the same software when the working environment or the device changed. Design principles aim at enhancing the development of user-friendly software that also minimizes the time the user spends to complete a task.

Security and relia­bility of software in the present-day world are core factors considered in the digital world. Effec­tiveness of software is coupled with security to ensure that the privacy of user data is prior­i­tized. Software used in sensitive areas like banking, health and government needs to be reliable and secure to prevent unautho­rized access and provide software efficiency. As the technology advances, security issues are better addressed together with relia­bility to efficiently automate our daily activities.

At the present day, technology is the backbone of virtually every­thing we do. From simple personal tasks to complex indus­trial processes, we are relying on software to get fast, accurate and reliable results. In this digital era appli­ca­tions are helping us manage business, socialize, commu­nicate, automate business processes, increase produc­tivity, enhance security and much more, and this makes technology an integral part of our lives. With the advancement of technology, the software development process has evolved as well. The world is demanding for appli­ca­tions that are efficient, fast, reliable and easy to use; this means that devel­opers must focus more on strategic planning in software development so as to achieve the best results possible. Planning is a crucial phase in the development process, as it deter­mines the level of success and relia­bility of an application.

Strategic planning in software development involves setting objec­tives, focusing on the archi­tecture and design, deciding on the development timeline and concen­trating resources and efforts. A strategic plan helps devel­opers layout a framework that enables them to work toward achieving the goals in the most effective and efficient way. Below are some of the roles and values of strategic planning in software development.

A Well Thought Architecture

An appli­cation and its efficiency is only as good as its archi­tecture. Devel­oping fast, efficient and reliable appli­ca­tions starts with the software archi­tecture; it is what deter­mines its perfor­mance when in use. Strategic planning helps the developer focus on the various software archi­tec­tural elements that make an app more reliable; these include security, speed, efficient memory footprint, and stability. Devel­oping an app without a solid plan means the app might have security issues, frequent crashes and be slow during operation, whereas strategic planning helps eliminate this issues.

Improved Quality

Focus on strategic planning in app development helps the developer build excellent quality. An accurate plan helps the developer start the development with the end in mind and this way the objec­tives are accom­plished. Every appli­cation is developed to solve a particular problem. App development with a strategic plan will solve the problem in the most efficient way, and the users will be satisfied with the results. The quality will determine its success in the market.

Timely App Development (Time Management)

Statistics show that most appli­ca­tions are not completed in time and this leads to incon­ve­niences or at times renders the software useless. An app that was meant for a specific event like national elections has to be complete for testing and imple­men­tation before the elections begin. Unless the software is complete before the event, the development process will be a waste of time and resources. Planning helps the developer layout a development schedule. The schedule outlines the tasks to be completed in each phase, and by following this program, it is possible to develop and complete the project in time.

Cost Reduction

Software development is a costly process that requires both resources and time. A strategic plan helps the developer come up with a plan that describes the guide­lines and speci­fi­ca­tions of how the app will be developed. With a good design and archi­tecture, it is possible to develop the software with the allocated resources. Without a good plan devel­opers may work for weeks or months just to realize they are heading in the wrong direction, and this leads to waste of resources, while a good plan can help reduce these costs.
