Have you ever wonder that in one big business company without information technology? Can they perform their tasks or transactions easily? If you’ll ask me, I’ll answer, no. It’s because almost of the big business company are dealing a computer system especially nowadays we are here in a modern world, and according to Bill Gates, “Information Technology and business are becoming inextricably interwoven. I don’t think anybody can talk meaningfully about one without the talking about other.” The term IT is ambiguous although mostly synonym with computer technology (Haigh, 2011). In fact, the great majority of references to information technology have always been concerned with computer, although the exact meaning has shifted over time. The phrase received its first prominent usage in a Harvard Business Review article intended to promote a technocratic vision for the future of business management (Haigh, Leavitt & Whisler, 1958). Humans have been storing, retrieving, manipulating and communicating information since the Sumerians in Mesopotamia developed writing about 3000 BC (Butler, 1997), but the term “Information Technology” in its modern sense first
