The identified vital signs will aid cybersecurity analysts with triage for potentially malicious insider threats. From a total of 45 analytic variables assessed by 42 cybersecurity SMEs, the top six variables were identified using a comprehensive data collection process. The results indicated that workplace satisfaction is one of the top critical cyber visualization variables that should be measured and visualized to aid cybersecurity analysts in the detection of potentially malicious cyber insider threat activities.
