Review the NICE Workforce Framework. Are there certain areas that you would want to focus your career on? Explain which areas would appeal the most to you and which would appeal the least.

The area that appealed to me most in the NICE workforce framework is the Protection and Defense sector. This area is the most intriguing because most of these professions work actively to mitigate current and future threats. These roles play a huge part in ensuring systems and networks are available and accessible for clients, consumers, employees and employers at all times. In the event a cyber-attack occurs, the professional would have already begun the steps to eliminate the threat.

The area that would be the least appealing in the NICE workforce framework would be design and development. I believe this division has the most meticulous attention to detail when it comes to their contribution to cybersecurity. This is my least favorite because it seems to be one of the high-stress roles where one mistake in a code could be the thin line between a cyber threat and a data breach.
