We set out to determine if coherent, integrated, and validated indicators for Insider Workplace Violence (WPV) and Insider Cyber Sabotage (ICS) can be identified.

We identified the observable predispositions, stressors, and concerning behaviors that were common to both types of crimes as well as those that were found in only one type of crime. From these findings, it should be possible to develop common indicators that apply to both types of crime in a more coherent and integrated way.
