Re: What Determines IT Spending Priorities?

Thankyou Hoon S. Cha, David E. Pingry and Matt E. Thatcher for a truly riveting article.

When managers commit less money to Security, they are basically gambling. They are probably aware what the consequences are if security fail, so are playing the odds the way a gambler or someone who chooses to drive their car uninsured does. We are all aware that IT is a cost no matter how many savings you make. As long as you, as a IT professional, are aware of the risks, and take steps to inform the big decision makers in your enterprise of the risks, you can't be held accountable for security disasters.

For other IT spending areas it depends on where your priorities lie. Most firms would agree that money spent on services that the administration staff use are unavoidable. The business can't run without them. For the rest of the IT services it really depends on what your busines does and what size it is.
