    Probably bigger because of how centralized everything has become.

      I was thinking about this the other day about how so many functions and internal services for firms, especially IT, were outsourced and centralized. For my company this meant that so many means of internal communication and online storage went from in-house servers to the cloud. Security is fucked because my company depends on another for our private info. Like you can’t have a system that is disconnected from the internet anymore.

        Outsourcing makes sense because smaller companies don't have resources or expertise to have their own Cybersecurity Operations running.

          It makes sense to do that for a small company but mine is massive
