“…An in-depth example of terminology development is with the use of the term ''vigilance,'' highlighting issues with the singular disciplinary focus over interdisciplinarity. In a study measuring student attention through electroencephalography (EEG), the conclusive definition of vigilance was, ''the ability to sustain conscious processing of random, repetitive stimuli without succumbing to habituation or distraction by other trivial stimuli'' [37]. A psychologist researcher influential in developing a measure of the human aspects in cybersecure behavior describes vigilance as technically referencing either positive or negative attention: one can be vigilant to checking private phone messages at work, for instance [33].…”

This paper presents a systematic review of K-12 cybersecurity education literature from around the world. 24 academic papers dated from 2013-2022 were eligible for inclusion in the literature established within the research protocol. An additional 19 gray literature sources comprised the total. A range of recurring common topics deemed as aspects of cybersecurity behavior or practice were identified. A variety of cybersecurity competencies and skills are needed for K-12 students to apply their knowledge. As may be expected to be the case with interdisciplinary fields, studies are inherently unclear in the use of their terminology, and this is compounded in this field due to the pervasive nature of cybersecurity, relevant and important to every person using a digital device. Almost all the studies within the data focused on secondary school settings and it appears the primary school years are largely ignored. This review suggests that most aspects of cybersecurity are not being systematically taught at K-12 around the world.

“…Vigilance refers to the capacity an individual has to sustain conscious processing of repetitive, unpredictable stimuli without habituation or distraction (Pradhapan et al, 2017). Vigilance is regarded as a state of alertness to rare and unpredictably frequent stimuli (Pradhapan et al, 2017). When attention is sustained for a prolonged period, human processing limitations lead to compounding performance failures, the phenomenon known as vigilance decrement (Sawyer and Hancock, 2018;Warm et al, 2018).…”

The capacity to sustain attention to virtual threat landscapes has led cyber security to emerge as a new and novel domain for vigilance research. However, unlike classic domains, such as driving and air traffic control and baggage security, very few vigilance tasks exist for the cyber security domain. Four essential challenges that must be overcome in the development of a modern, validated cyber vigilance task are extracted from this review of existent platforms that can be found in the literature. Firstly, it can be difficult for researchers to access confidential cyber security systems and personnel. Secondly, network defense is vastly more complex and difficult to emulate than classic vigilance domains such as driving. Thirdly, there exists no single, common software console in cyber security that a cyber vigilance task could be based on. Finally, the rapid pace of technological evolution in network defense correspondingly means that cyber vigilance tasks can become obsolete just as quickly. Understanding these challenges is imperative in advancing human factors research in cyber security.CCS categoriesHuman-centered computing~Human computer interaction (HCI)~HCI design and evaluation methods.

Objective. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is an objective reflection of the brain activities, which provides potential possibilities for brain state estimation based on EEG characteristics. However, how to mine the effective EEG characteristics is still a distressing problem in brain state monitoring. Approach. The phase-scrambled method was used to generate images with different noise levels. Images were encoded into a rapid serial visual presentation paradigm. N-back working memory method was employed to induce and assess fatigue state. The irregular-resampling auto-spectral analysis method was adopted to extract and parameterize (exponent and offset) the characteristics of EEG fractal components, which were analyzed in the four dimensions: fatigue, sustained attention, visual noise and experimental tasks. Main results. The degree of fatigue and visual noise level had positive effects on exponent and offset in the prefrontal lobe, and the ability of sustained attention negatively affected exponent and offset. Compared with visual stimuli task, rest task induced even larger values of exponent and offset and statistically significant in the most cerebral cortex. In addition, the steady-state visual evoked potential amplitudes were negatively and positively affected by the degree of fatigue and noise levels, respectively. Significance. The conclusions of this study provide insights into the relationship between brain states and EEG characteristics. In addition, this study has the potential to provide objective methods for brain states monitoring and EEG modeling.
