Curious how the DBA track would play out vs. info security track in terms of job growth and relative immunity to outsourcing to 3rd world countries (Would a sane company ever outsource their security to India or China for example?). On the other site, DBA still suggests somewhat on-site position.

Anyone care to elaborate in these terms (immediate vs. intermediate term career prospects between the OraDBA and info security)?
