Replication Data for: Securing the Digital Edge: How Security Management Mediates the Impact of ICT Infrastructure on Firm Performance in Emerging Markets.

Description

This repository contains the replication data and analysis scripts for the study of the nexus between ICT infrastructure, security management, and organizational performance in emerging economies. Using a comprehensive dataset of 9,966 formal firms from Peru's Annual Economic Survey (EEA 2024), the research employs Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to explore how security acts as a strategic mediator. The results demonstrate that ICT infrastructure is the primary driver of both security investment and performance, with security management channeling 17.6% of the total effect on firm growth and scale. Version 2 (September 2026). Adds the files that support Version 2 of the article: sensitivity dataset 9966.csv (the nine constructs, the INEI survey format F2/M/N and 2023 net sales, without tax identifiers), sensitivity analysis.py (Section 4.8.1 and Table 13: re-estimation without the small-firm stratum and with standardized log sales as a continuous outcome), bootstrap indirect effects.py and its output (bias-corrected bootstrap 95% confidence intervals for the indirect and total effects, note to Table 11), rebuild from INEI.py and README v2.md . The Version 1 files are unchanged…
