Hello Martin,

I can tell you from my experience that quite a few insurance companies in the London Market use R.
If this is not enough, the following document might help you do find some good arguments:

Hello,

I am trying to convince our IT Manager that R is as safe as possible from IT security point of view - could you point me to something on the web / some reasons for why this is true? I do not think he has a specific concern but does not know the software and would like to understand the security implications.

Thanks in advance
