Assume you are the president of a small data brokerage company, which gathers information from
consumers on the web and sells it to other companies for marketing purposes. The integrity of data is
critical to your companys success. The company makes an average profit of $100,000 per year. It costs
$50,000 per year to secure company data and systems.
Answer the following question(s):
1. Would you continue protecting the data at this cost? Why or why not?
2. You want to expand the company but doing so will cost $75,000. Would you reduce data security,
and therefore the cost, in order to expand? Why or why not?
Fully address the questions in this discussion; provide valid rationale for your choices.
