Going out to customers to provide support, or do audits, I didn't see much of the data -> money side of it. I did see discussions about "how much does it cost overall? and " surely we can do it cheaper on 'commodity machines' Windows or Linux". Those who had been burnt (either with a significant outage, or data loss) tended to understand the IT side better. There were discussions along the lines of "Does your car have insurance cover?" Well the system are expensive for the same reason. What would it cost the corporation if you had a fine or reputational damage resulting in a share price crash. (EU can charge 4% of worldwide turnover for the preceding financial year for major data loss) *.*
There was often a feeling of "we do all this work to protect the data - we are not going to expose it without very good reason".
