/ I'm always a fan of the alitibies and cross-cutting concerns: security, performance, scalability, manageability, reliability, etc.Security is an especially powerful opportunity because it goes beyond the technology. It's a people, process, and technology thing. It also has special business considerations, which means that it's easier to connect IT to business.Interestingly, funding a security project is often tougher than funding for risk management. The risk management aspect, speaks to the business and makes it easier to understand.
