13. 13 Paragraph A Computer security is big business, as evidenced by some 13,000 to 14,000 information-technology practitioners, product makers, analysts and investors gathered for the RSA Conference, the security industry's most important annual get together. That's a far cry from the first RSA Conference 14 years ago, which brought together a few dozen cryptographers, and better than last year's assemblage of just over 10,000 attendees. — From The Wall Street Journal, Feb. 2005

14. 14 Paragraph B The computer security market was worth $27.2 billion in 2004, up 19% from $22.8 billion in 2003, according to research firm IDC. It's expected to grow at a similar clip to reach $52.2 billion by 2008. The number of companies at the RSA Conference reflected the growth, too. The showroom's 275 company booths were sold out, with another 60 companies were wait listed. A year ago, 250 companies had booths. — From The Wall Street Journal, Feb. 2005
