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.

Popularity of AI studies is increasing rapidly, providing new AI talent
AI, Data Science and related studies are increasingly popular amongst students.1 Due to new programs in AI and data science, growth is three times as fast in AI focused programmes (22% compound annual growth rate) as in related fields.2 Of Dutch student population in 2019, 32% studied in Zuid-Holland in 2018. •Universities in Zuid-Holland do not yet offer dedicated AI programmes for students. However, there are AI specialisation tracks within computer science at both Leiden University (UL) and Delft University of Technology (TU Delft). UL also offers a minor data science. Erasmus University Rotterdam offers several master programs that integrate data science and machine learning in multiple disciplines and several post-academic data science tracks for professionals.3•Largest and fastest growing programmes in Zuid-Holland are the Computer Science & Engineering bachelor (1.400 students, 16% annual growth) and the Computer Science master (780 students, 13% annual growth). These are the largest computer science programmes in The Netherlands.•The ambition of the Leiden-Delft-Erasmus alliance is that soon every student will come into contact with AI education within their studies.These universities aim to reach 85.000 students in the next 10 years4.
