Global Considerations
What international compliance standards (either at the time of the incident or today) would have been relevant to the incident, and how? If your company is not global, imagine that is.
Analyze the impact of the incident on global communication and commerce (again, if your organization is not global, imagine otherwise). In other words, what impact did (or would) the incident have on views and use of information technology and communication in global contexts?
Global Technology Environment: Based on your research and analysis of this case, determine the global legal and regulatory impacts this case had on the information technology overall. In other words, determine the relationship between this case and the global regulatory standards that are now in place, will be put in place shortly, or should be put in place as a result of this or related incident(s).
Summary: Given your knowledge of cyberlaw principles, ethical needs, and legal compliance standards, summarize how you applied these principles to your analysis of the case. In other words, how did you apply cyberlaw principles to the circumstances, business model, and IT issues that the selected organization faced?
