@Infrogmation the missing piece of the puzzle for me is the risk to shareholders.

Shareholders don't care about systems being down if the lost revenue and repair costs are less than the money they made through the layoffs. CEOs mostly spend their time trying to delight their real customers, the shareholders.

Well at least 85% correct.

Buying a 3rd party product that claims to fulfil requirement X on your checklist, so you can tick off that item is almost always cheaper than building the capabilities, or even investigating if requirement X on that list even makes sense for your company, and properly documenting that X does not make sense for your company and hence you skipped it.

And if that 3rd party product happens to kill your company, 🤷, you have taken home your bonus already.
