The SOFIT 2.0 Taxonomy

The SOFIT (Sociotechnical and Organizational Factors for Insider Threat) knowledge base was originally developed under IARPA funding in 2016-2019. SOFIT is a comprehensive knowledge base of behavioral and technical insider risk indicators that provides a foundation for whole-person insider threat assessment models that seek to identify at-risk individuals “left of harm.” SOFIT 2.0 reflects changes to SOFIT’s hierarchical structure and other technical modifications that advance the development of behavioral-science based analytic models for predictive insider threat mitigation.
