R help - Jan 2015 - R for organization

Hello,

I am interesting in R usage in a big organization. It is always top
question about how it is safe to use R working with sensitive data. Because
of this I have decided to write to your team. I am waititng that you can
help me to understand what are the main reasons why some organizations
don't allow to use this open source and install packages which are very
useful for analytics. Could you please give me an explanation about risks
installing R packages? Of course, I would appreciate too if you will send
me some sources where I can find information about this instead of explain
in e-mail (if you don't have enough time).

Thank you!

Sincerely,
Vlada
