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.

Multiple trends are identified in the domain of safety and security
- The use of multi-party computation (MPC) for secure information sharing is becoming more prevalent.
- The applications of AI, such as AI-drive decision making and the related risks of biases.
- The use of DNA technology provides opportunities for the detection of perpetrators of various crimes. However this technology also presents privacy risks.
In the following discussion the experts discussed expected threat targets, threat agents, targeted domains, and most influential technologies in security. The experts discussed the use of multi-party computation (MPC) for secure information sharing. They also talked about applications of AI such as AI-driven decision making, and the related risk of bias. Another topic that came up is the use of DNA technology, which offers opportunities for the detection of perpetrators of crimes, but which also presents privacy risks. In terms of threat agents and targets, the roles of nation states and vulnerable citizens were discussed, as well as the increasing difficulty of attributing a threat to an actor. For example due to the use of deep fakes. Lastly, the experts also discussed the increased collaboration between public and private organisations in the security domain and the related shift of roles within the security domain. The experts advised the public to optimize this collaboration through working pragmatically and starting by tackling a small, shared issue that is part of a larger societal security issue.
