Answer:

Information technology department is related with all the information retrieving, storing ,processing etc through a system .Information security department is responsible for protection of information from unauthorized access.

For maintaining the collaboration and proper functioning of both the department should report to the same head of the department .In this way, they can stay updated, secured, assisted togather and help each other as both departments are working for the information field.

Separate reporting of the both departments to different head can create confusion,risk of security, dysfunctional working,other risks as well.Thus, both departments should report to same head of department .
