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.

Tension & conflict
A conflict is generally referred to as a dispute between two or more parties, where one party perceives that its interests and decisions are negatively affected by the other party. When there is tension and confusion between two or more parties, this can result in a conflict. There are multiple types of tensions and conflicts, such as geopolitical tension, military operations, ethnic/religious conflict, and public unrest.
Conflicts can also entail smaller forms of conflict. This means that in the broader conflict, such as a war between two nation states, smaller conflicts can arise, such as a conflict between rebel groups and arms suppliers. Furthermore, some conflicts are too difficult to solve with the parties that are involved. That is why nation states, international organisations or individual leaders that are not involved in a conflict can act as international mediators. The international mediator leads conversations and peace talks between the involved parties, with the goal of resolving the conflict. Nation states act as international mediators see that conflict resolution can provide stability in a region, benefits to the political and economic landscape, and in turn lead to benefits for surrounding and global countries.
