As ASB points out - financial institutions are big outsourcers - whether for development, or infrastructure.

Financial institutions are heavily regulated and can't treat security measures as an expense. I heard one Cloud person talking about who we don't need data centers, you can put your source code on the cloud. Are people willing to trust the cloud with that? Thanks, Mathew From: Andrew S.
