Trends in Security Information
The HSD Trendmonitor is designed to provide access to relevant content on various subjects in the safety and security domain, to identify relevant developments and to connect knowledge and organisations. The safety and security domain encompasses a vast number of subjects. Four relevant taxonomies (type of threat or opportunity, victim, source of threat and domain of application) have been constructed in order to visualize all of these subjects. The taxonomies and related category descriptions have been carefully composed according to other taxonomies, European and international standards and our own expertise.
In order to identify safety and security related trends, relevant reports and HSD news articles are continuously scanned, analysed and classified by hand according to the four taxonomies. This results in a wide array of observations, which we call ‘Trend Snippets’. Multiple Trend Snippets combined can provide insights into safety and security trends. The size of the circles shows the relative weight of the topic, the filters can be used to further select the most relevant content for you. If you have an addition, question or remark, drop us a line at info@securitydelta.nl.

Chemicals, plastics, petroleum, glass, rubber, metals
Chemicals, plastics, glass, rubber and metals can all be made or produced in industrial factories, except for petroleum, which is a naturally occurring oil. Chemicals are substances which have been artificially produced or purified and are being used in almost every domain. The application of chemicals differs depending on the type of chemical and the product on which it is used or the process for which it is used for. Plastics are (semi)synthetic products, such as cd’s, plastic bottles and toys, which are made through various industrial processes and are usually derived from fossil fuels, such as natural gas or petroleum. Glass is an inorganic translucent, but solid material that is produced by cooling materials, such as silica sand, and is for example used in glassware, windows and optics. Rubber is a material that can be extracted from plants, known as natural rubber, or produced from fossil fuels, such as natural gas and petroleum, also known as synthetic rubber. Rubber has a widespread use of application, ranging from hoses and tires to shoes and toys. Lastly, metals are materials which have the ability to conduct electricity and heat. Metals, such as aluminium, iron, gold, silver and copper are extracted from the earth, after which they can be processed into various products in industrial factories.
