case study 3 10
Using standard terminology (see case study #1), write a two to three page summary of your research. At a minimum, your research summary must include the following:
1. Introduction which includes a well-reasoned explanation as to why “cybersecurity†is considered an industry by many reporters and market analysts but is not listed as a unique industry under NAICS. Your introduction should include an explanation of the importance of standardized industry classification codes (who uses them and why).
2. Analysis and discussion of one or more industry codes which could be used by your cybersecurity company (based upon the product listed in this assignment). The discussion should include a comparison between your company’s business activities and the industry characteristics for the four classification families listed in this assignment (prefixes 334, 44, 51, & 54).
3. Recommendation for the best fit for a single NAICS code to be used by your company on its website and included in its business directory listings and financial reports. This recommendation must include your reasons as to why this code is the best fit.
4. A closing section in which you present a summary of the issues regarding the question of whether or not cybersecurity is a separate industry, your recommendation for selection of aNAICS code, and your rationale for your choice.
