The Inescapable Logic of Security
Think about it. When times get tough, what’s the first thing you cut? The fancy coffee, the extra holiday, the new television. What’s the last thing you cut? The locks on your doors. For governments and massive corporations, it’s the same principle, just on a terrifyingly large scale. Security spending isn’t discretionary, it’s fundamental. In a world of cyber warfare, industrial espionage, and general unrest, spending on monitoring and protection becomes as essential as keeping the lights on. This creates a revenue stream that is, shall we say, rather resilient to the economic weather. While other sectors are hoping for sunshine, these companies are selling umbrellas in a storm they know is always brewing.
