FY 2021: Strategic Road Map to Leverage Research to Counter Insider Threat

Abstract

The ARLIS team was tasked with identifying research needs within the insider threat community that drew on its strengths in the social and behavioral sciences, and fully leveraged its position as a University Affiliated Research Center (UARC) serving the US Intelligence Community (IC). Based on an extensive literature review and input from numerous subject matter experts, including our government clients at PERSEREC's Threat Lab, we identified five initial research areas and a strategic approach to our research program for countering insider threat. This Strategic Road Map lays out a path for building a comprehensive, holistic approach to the complex problem of insider threat. These five research areas include: 1. Moving from Insider Threat to Insider TRUST 2. Investigating Human Behavior Factors 3. Investigating Cultural Factors 4. Investigating Organizational Factors 5. Examining Technical/Cyber Contributions, Including Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
