Developing a Conceptual Model for Insider Threat
summary
99 case studies based on interviews with investigators, HR, managers and co‑workers produce concrete patterns: 99 case studies, 32% worked in groups, and the most common archetype is an addict rather than a disgruntled employee. Methods combine qualitative interviews with a longitudinal survey that measures the dark triad, impulsivity and stress, and a prototype real‑time detection system tested in partner organisations. Key finding is that behavioral change — notably anxiety spikes precede attacks and increased off‑hours online activity — outperforms demographics, raising practical and ethical tradeoffs for monitoring.
