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.

Border security
Border security are the measures taken by a country or group of countries to monitor its borders and regulate the movement of people, animals and goods across the border. Border security policies are adopted by a country or group of countries to fight against unauthorized travel or trade across its borders, to limit illegal immigration, combat transnational crime and prevent wanted criminals from travelling.
The degree of strictness of border controls varies across countries and borders. In some countries, controls may be targeted at the traveller’s religion, ethnicity, nationality, or other countries that have been visited. Others may need to be certain the traveller has paid the appropriate fees for their visas or has future travel planned out of the country. Yet others may concentrate on the contents of the travellers’ luggage and imported goods to ensure nothing is being carried that might bring a biosecurity risk into the country. Border security may be composed of several elements, including physical barriers (fence or wall for instance), patrol routes, lighting, watch towers, night-vision cameras, radar cameras, mine fields and the deployment of border patrol personnel.
