If I were creating a brief business plan for a company that is creating a search engine app that only shows safe sites it would look like this. The purpose of this business would be to create an app that only shows the user sites which have been verified and scanned for any viruses. A verified site means that a team or program has gone through it and evaluated if there is any risk of getting exploited.  The goals of this company would be to keep the people informed, to create a safe search engine, and to minimize the number of cybercrime victims. This app would be intended for practically anyone that uses the internet. This app costs about 30,000 dollars to create and sustain. This cost is made up of a design team, software developers, an advertisement team, and a management team. Each team would be made up of about one to two employees running that individual section. The management team or person would be the head of the company and they would delegate tasks and goals the company needed to work on. The company would make money by charging the user for a subscription for the app. This way the company can continue working on the app and making updates and getting more and more sites verified and scanned.
