You're right though - no one pats you on the back because the recently discovered Trojan/Virus 'X' never made it into the building thanks to your sterling work but they soon notice when the system goes down because there has been a power cut and the request for the additional UPS was denied for 'budgeting reasons'.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure about the policy though or the plan - but the mindset definitely! I have spent years of my life trying to change mindsets and some you win and some you lose. Some of the businesses I have been involved with in the past are interested in one thing only - chasing revenue - and that sort of thinking leaves an awful lot of fires in its wake that need putting out by somebody.<BR/><BR/>Jas.<BR/><BR/>theitmanagersjournal.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
