    The competition in today's business is getting stronger each day. Due to its proven cost reduction potential the usage of Information Technology (IT) outsourcing and the flexibility it provided are among the attractive and effective features to both SMEs (Small Medium enterprises) and large enterprises. Most enterprises with different sizes decide to transfer some or all of their IT services to outsourcing vendors. Implementing IT outsourcing has some advantages such as decreasing time required to enter a market, increasing quality, enhancing customer satisfaction, and allowing an organization to focus on its core areas. However, the use of IT outsourcing comes with many risks which need to be carefully evaluated before any engagement. This thesis surveys the recent literature for the most important risk factors inherent to the IT outsourcing such as increase in expenses, increased dependence on outsourcing firm, confidentiality and communication problems, etc. Herein, we focus on identifying the IT outsourcing usage characteristics and understanding the perception of IT outsourcing risk factors by conducting a survey in both IT companies and IT departments of the companies in Turkey. The conducted data obtained by the survey is used to discover the variance among the management levels of IT personnel, in the perceived factors that may lead to IT outsourcing risks. We analyze the survey data and portrayed the current situation of risks of IT outsourcing perceived by IT practitioners in Turkey.
