Cost or Focus?

Filed in archive Outsourcing Issues on April 30, 2007

In order to have a very meaningful outsourcing deals, companies should first and foremost identify the things which are important in their outsourcing deals.

This is very important in the case of security outsourcing because the vital data as well as vulnerable information are being handled in this kind of outsourcing deal. This is where this question comes in.. which is more important, cost of focus?

This opinion column written by Andreas Antonopoulos makes its readers reflect on the real reason why most companies outsource their security functions. As for me, I would say that focus should be the number one priority because worrying too much about cost could cost the company much more than what is prepared to give.
