INSIDER THREAT:
CRIMINAL RECIDIVISM
This research delves into the relationship between criminal recidivism and insider threat risk, particularly within the U.S. Army.
The methodology employed in this research focused on machine learning techniques but now emphasizes Generalized Linear Models (GLMs), to analyze the data and identify predictors of recidivism, which we then relate to Insider Threat.

THE OCCUPATIONAL BURDEN OF MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS IN THE U.S. MILITARY
We analyze the Army’s separation landscape from 2008-present for the office of the surgeon general in a way that enables understanding of the mental health diagnosis – readiness relationship so that we improve recruiting and retention to reduce first term attrition, burdens on the health care system, and impact on Army units.

DATA FUSION ENTERPRISE: BUILD AN ARCHITECTURE FOR AUTOMATING HUB PROCESSES
This research provides a comprehensive proof of concept for automating hub processing in the Insider Threat Hub by developing a pipeline that harmonizes sensor-based decision support for soldiers in battlefield conditions.
The model ingests data from several wearable technology streams for real-time health monitoring, analogous to hub processes ingesting disparate data streams for analysis and report of Insider risk likelihood.
Research
West Point Insider Threat Program research supports the extension of the current state of knowledge in the fields of insider risk and insider threat by supporting undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral research.
