SEC Budget Research Report Shows Both Increases and Cuts
The Security Executive Council has released the results of its 2009 Security Budget Research Report: Impact of the Economic Downturn. The Council surveyed more than 250 qualified security practitioners in January to gather information on the state of their security budgets and to assess any impact the economic downturn has had on their programs.
• While more than half of respondents’ budgets are lower in 2009 than last year, 25% reported no change to their budgets and nearly one quarter reported budget increases.
