Is this yet another sign of the typical media industry "head in the sand, refuse to change" approach, or might we be seeing the early stages or some actual change? After all, admitting you have a problem is the first step to fixing it."

Comment No such thing as Security ROI (Score 1) 64
AFAIK, you consider security the same way you consider insurance (or as an insurance complement): How much your business continuity's worth? Should you be hacked/DDoSed, how will it affect your revenue? How much money would you need to get it all back online? You'll also need to consider how intrusive your security is: data backup solutions sometimes require you to stop services while they are processed. If you want backups to be non-intrusive, again, you'll consider how much these stopped services cost. Same goes for services availability (clustering, replication, off-site disaster recovery plans).
In short : your security investments are business specific. No easy rule of thumb in here, I'm afraid.
Hope this helps.
