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.

Large corporations
There is a big difference between small, medium and large enterprises, or corporations. Within the boundaries of the European Union, large corporations are regarded as enterprises that have over 250 hired employees and an annual turnover of at least €50 million. Large corporations generally have strong financial backbones, tight lobby ties and influential societal, economic and political positions. On the one hand, these enterprises provide economic opportunities for society, with the creation and provision of (new) jobs and large turnovers that are (generally) reinvested in both the company and society. On the other hand, due to the strong position that large enterprises have they can for example influence top-level policy making through corporate lobbies. The notion of whether large corporations should encompass such influential power is widely discussed in debates surrounding the concept of capitalism.
