MORPHEUS: Human Factors in Cybersecurity Literature Review and Dependency Data

50 human factors organized into six dimensions support the MORPHEUS cybersecurity framework. The repository documents a hybrid methodology involving a literature review of 1,482 publications and AI-assisted analysis of 122 causal dependencies. This supplementary material was uploaded to figshare in May 2026 under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Modeling causal dependencies among human factors based on the 122 AI-identified relationships
• Identifying validated psychometric scales for measuring cybersecurity-relevant human traits
• Replicating the literature screening process for threats like phishing and malware download
• Analyzing the distribution of human factors across cognitive, emotional, and behavioral dimensions

Strengths

• Framework organizes 50 specific human factors into six defined dimensions
• Methodology transparently documents screening of 1,482 initial publications
• AI-assisted analysis identified 122 causal dependencies with human validation
• Repository includes protocols, validation logs, and detailed file organization

Limitations

• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, requiring inspection after download
• The 2.9 MB size suggests a small dataset, potentially limiting scope
• Data freshness should be verified as the last update date is in the future (2026-05-19)
