Bookmart has run into a major problem, there computer system has been hacked and pertinent customer information was made easily accessible. BookMart needed to take immediate action in order to ensure this matter didn’t get worse than it already was. BookMart hired an outside consultant at the cost of $20,000 to come in and immediately identify the breach and work to fix it. The security company then gave them another option of running a complete security system for the company at the cost of $1,000,000. Even though this system has a very high cost, and the ROI may be hard to identify BookMart has no choice and must go through with it
