Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The CIO (Chief Information Officer) is responsible for running the company's information and computer systems like a business. This includes overseeing the technology infrastructure, managing IT projects, and ensuring that technology is properly aligned with the company's goals and objectives. Option A is incorrect because the CIO is not primarily responsible for assisting the Vice-President of Marketing. Option B is too narrow and only focuses on technical programming aspects. Option C is incorrect because gathering relevant data is usually the responsibility of the data entry team or the data analyst. Option D may be a part of the role of the CIO, but it is not the primary one.
