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.

There is a large shortage of IT personnel in the province of South Holland
There is a big shortage of IT personnel, also in the Province of South Holland. To train more people for IT and to increase knowledge of IT among other workers, WE IT was established. WE IT is a consortium of governments, (public and private) educators and businesses. The official signing of WE IT took place on 10 March at The Hague University of Applied Science.
Consortium of governments, educators and businesses
That is why in recent months a partial agreement within the HCA has been worked out. This led to a consortium of over fifteen local authorities, (public and private) educators and businesses: WE IT. This consortium wants to grow the number of IT people and that employees in other functions become familiar with IT. Training, refresher courses and retraining are essential. Therefore, WE IT supports a number of existing initiatives in the province.
