From an operational view finance and IT are more aligned than they are not. Finance is all about cash flow; where it's coming from and where it's going. And IT is all about data flow; where is good data coming from, what is it doing, where is it going.

Also, because of recent ransomware attacks I've been given (almost) carte blanche to secure our network and operational infrastructure with a special focus on finance, because the spice must flow.
