Method for calculating defensive player fantasy points

So I'm a doctoral student who is looking at team and individual performance over time, using NFL data. I have been using fantasy points as outcome, but I was wondering if anyone can explain the process for calculating the fantasy points for individual defensive players? It's easy to find the method for offensive players but I haven't been able to find the method for defensive players. Thanks!

My leagues' IDP scoring rules:

§  0.5 point per assisted tackle

§  3 points per interception

§  2 points per pass defended

§  2 points per fumble recovery

§  3 points per forced fumble

§  2 points per blocked kick

§  3 points per sack

§  6 points per defensive TD

§  6 points per punt or kickoff return for a TD

§  4 points per safety

§  1 point per 25 KO/Punt return yards
