Note that I wrote this article a year ago, when the lowest-possible-price outsourcing market was rampant in India. These days it's more common in China and Sri Lanka. Yes, security specialists can come from India, China, Sri Lanka, or any country for that matter, and I wouldn't suggest otherwise.

My point was that programmer salaries in India were significantly low enough at the time to make it at least ten-fold cheaper to hire developers over there. These days it's a different country (or set of countries) but the point still stands.
