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.

Increase in state actors targeting critical infrastructure
During 2022, Ukraine saw increased threat group activity targeting its energy and critical industrial infrastructure sectors. Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine provided opportunities for Russia-aligned actors to use their cyber offensive capabilities preemptively and in parallel to its kinetic attacks. As Western countries placed sanctions on Russia and indicted key members of Russian cyber operations, the U.S. government’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) prepared for potential retaliation by issuing a call for “Shields Up,” which included actions to safeguard ICS and OT environments
There were eight active threat groups: BENTONITE, CHERNOVITE, ELECTRUM, ERYTHRITE, KAMACITE, KOSTOVITE, WASSONITE and XENOTIME.
