Bingo. Just ask Kaspersky what they would pay for having had an IPS product 
installed (or a web application firewall) that could stop SQL Injection the 
day before they got breached and their reputation took a big hit.

If you get breached and have to notify the people whose information you 
lost, Ponemon figures it's about $200 a record now. The good news is that if 
you get breached repeatedly, your cost per record goes down. :-)
