Publications
Up one levelOur team is very active in the research community, and we frequently publish the results of our work. Here are a few select publications.
- The Real Work of Computer Network Defense Analysts
- This paper reports on investigations of how computer network defense (CND) analysts conduct their analysis on a day-to-day basis and discusses the implications of these cognitive requirements for designing effective CND visualizations.
