- You are hired as a security expert for an online retailer. Currently, the company makes an annual revenue of $10,000,000. A security-risk analysis has shown that in the case of a ransomware attack on this company, the company would see an immediate loss of $1000,000. In addition, due to degraded reputation, the company's revenue would experience a drop of 10% over the next year. It is estimated that online retailers, similar to the one in question, experience 1 ransomware infection every 2 years. The company is considering the purchase of a set of security safeguards that would reduce the probability of successful ransomware infection in half. The annual cost of this set of safeguards is $200,000. It should also be noted that if implemented, the safeguards would slow down the retailer's site, and cause a revenue loss of about $50,000 a month (relative to the current revenue). Using the cost-benefit analysis approach, determine whether the company should purchase this solution.
