We are security professionals from the behavioral sciences dedicated to helping organizations prevent, detect, and manage risk from employees and other insiders. Our name is derived from the leading analytical framework used by psychologists and other counterintelligence and security professionals for understanding how insider risk evolves over time in organizations. First published by Dr. Shaw in 2005, the Critical Pathway to Insider Risk (CPIR) framework gained wide acceptance and use over the last decade, culminating in its publication in Studies in Intelligence in 2015.
