You have been invited to present your "case study research" Is there a cybersecurity industry? during a "lightening round" panel for your CTO's monthly "brown bag" luncheon. The CTO sponsors these panels to help staff members learn more about technologies. The panels also provide an opportunity to develop "public speaking" skills.

To prepare for your presentation, you must write a 3 to 5 paragraph briefing statement in which you summarize your findings. This will be reviewed by the CTO before you give your presentation. Your briefing statement must provide:

1. An introduction to the topic that answers the question "What is an 'industry?'"

2. Provide an analysis that discusses why market researchers treat cybersecurity as an "industry" but, the NAICS system does not.

3. Provide a summary & conclusions section in which you state your opinion as to whether or not cybersecurity should be assigned a unique NAICS code. Provide 3 supporting facts or reasons for your choice.

4. Provide in-text citations and references for 3 or more authoritative sources. Put the reference list at the end of your posting.
