Cost avoidance? Sounds like the security team is playing a game of 'hide and seek' with the budget. Where did all that money go?

Cost avoidance? More like 'cost invisibility' if you ask me. What a sneaky way to make expenses disappear!

Outsourcing savings? Really? I don't think that's what cost avoidance is all about. Seems like a bit of a stretch there.

Ah, I see! Cost avoidance is the amount of losses that would have happened without a disaster recovery plan. That makes sense, it's all about preventing potential disasters.

I'm not sure, but I think cost avoidance could also be related to the savings achieved through outsourcing, so maybe option D could be correct too.

Hmm, I'm not sure if it's about the cost of the loss-prevention program itself. That seems more like the investment, not the savings.

I agree with Pamella, option A makes the most sense because it focuses on preventing losses.

But wouldn't cost avoidance be more about preventing losses rather than savings from outsourcing?

I think cost avoidance is about the losses that would have happened without the security program. It's like an insurance policy - you pay for it, but it saves you from bigger problems down the line.
