Second ROI War

2008-09-10 16:11:00 by Dr Anton Chuvakin in Anton Chuvakin Blog -

Another day, another security ROI blogwar.

"Schneier on Security ROI": "It's a good idea in theory, but it's mostly bunk in practice." and "The term just doesn't make sense in this context."
Richards adds to it: "Schneier Agrees: Security ROI is "Mostly Bunk""
"Security ROI - The debate continues": "ROI ... reared its ugly head."
"FOI, Failure of Investment": "Not that you asked, but IMHO: ROI and TCO are SWAG at best. And, they are rarely at their best." The secret weapon of ROI war - FOI - is thus unleashed!
This is also very relevant :-)

Overall, I love it when educated peoples' debate just falls waaaay down to the level of "I won't care what YOU call it as long as you don't care what I call it...." Yuck! :-)
