What is Analysis?
Effective analysis in IT involves being able to generate insights into human, business or technology activities. The quality of any analysis performed can have a direct effect on project or management decisions made. In its simplest form, good analysis is based on an appropriate quantity and quality of information, from which relevant insights are generated. Analysis is a foundational ingredient in almost all IT work. Whether in technology design, support or security, poor analysis often leads to poor results.
