What makes someone a good security analyst? Even analysts who are good at catching bad guys aren’t always very effective at explaining how they do it. The presenters recently sought to better understand the investigation process by exploring how analysts use convergent and divergent thinking in their day-to-day processes. In this session, they will present the results from their original research on the role of thinking modes in investigative work, along with strategies for practicing and developing these types of thinking to become a more effective and metacognitively-aware analyst.
