Wait, so it's not about outsourcing savings? That's surprising!

I thought cost avoidance was linked to the costs of loss-prevention programs, so maybe option B is the answer?

I feel like cost avoidance might be more about the savings from not having losses, but I can't recall the exact definition we studied.

I think cost avoidance is related to losses that we prevent, but I'm not sure if it's specifically about security programs or something broader.

I'm a little confused by the wording here. Is option B talking about the cost of the loss-prevention program itself? Or is option A the right answer, describing the losses avoided?

Okay, I've got this. Cost avoidance is about the savings from not having losses, so the correct answer must be A. The security program helped avoid those potential losses.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll have to think it through carefully. Is it talking about the cost of the security program itself or the losses prevented by it?

This question seems straightforward. I think the answer is A - the amount of losses that likely would have occurred without the security program.

Okay, I think I've got it. The method is going to delete all the .class files in the Projects directory and its subdirectories. So the answer is A.

Cost avoidance? Sounds like the security team is playing a game of 'hide and seek' with the budget. Where did all that money go?

I'm not sure, but I think cost avoidance could also be related to the savings achieved through outsourcing, so maybe option D could be correct too.
