Strata

Threat: Medium | Frequency: Common

Strata disguises itself as a mild-mannered spreadsheet and, without scrutiny, is indistinguishable from this popular productivity enhancer. A spreadsheet is a powerful business tool, but when business processes are built upon a layer of spread sheets, the dense Strata forms. In these cases a process mutates into a time-stealing enemy that takes on a life of itself. Hours can be spent using spreadsheets to perform business activities that can otherwise be performed in seconds with the proper tools. The solution is well-designed business management software that prevents the Strata from growing in the first place and frees professionals to analyze and automate critical business processes.
