Information technology (HET), as defined by the Information Technology Association of America (ITAA), is “the study, ontwerp, ontwikkeling, implementatie, support or management of computer-based information systems, particularly software applications and computer hardware.” IT deals with the use of electronic computers and computer software to , winkel, beschermen, werkwijze, transmit, and securely retrieve information.

Vandaag, the term information has ballooned to encompass many aspects of computing and technology, and the term has become very recognizable. IT professionals perform a variety of duties that range from installing applications to designing complex computer networks and information databases. A few of the duties that IT professionals perform may include data management, netwerken, engineering computer hardware, database and software design, as well as the management and administration of entire systems.

When computer and communications technologies are combined, the result is information technology, or “infotech”. Information technology is a general term that describes any technology that helps to produce, manipulate, winkel, communicate, and/or disseminate information. Presumably, when speaking of Information Technology (HET) as a whole, it is noted that the use of computers and information are associated.

In recent days ABET and the ACM have collaborated to form accreditation and curriculum standards for degrees in Information Technology as a distinct field of study separate from both Computer Science and Information Systems. Information technology (HET) is the acquisition, verwerken, storage and dissemination of vocal, pictorial, textual and numerical information by a microelectronics based combination of computing and telecommunications.

The term in its modern sense first appeared in a 1958 article published in the Harvard Business Review, in which authors Leavitt and Whisler commented that “the new technology does not yet have a single established name. We shall call it information technology (HET).
