Abstract
|
There is little question that Cyber Defense Analysis is a complex and difficult activity. The shear immensity of cyberspace and the inconsistency of attacks requires a comparable effort in terms of aiding. This paper suggests that an understanding of end user experiences and behaviors could be utilized to provide information and support to analysts. In order to attain that understanding, we propose that, in addition to and in support of the development of new technologies and tools, research is needed that focuses on understanding the interactions between cyber attack, end users' psychological states, behavioral indicators of those states and individual characteristics that are likely to mediate behavioral responses.
