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.

Cyber risks while working from home
This research focuses on the question to what extent the coronavirus and working from home have led to increased cyber insecurity for citizens and SMEs and what we can learn from this for the future. In doing so, we want to look at the nature and extent of threats and incidents, the impact that incidents have had and how citizens and SMEs have dealt with them. This insight is very important for SMEs in order to be able to assess what measures they can or must take and what the costs of these measures may be. From previous research we know that SMEs have little insight into the risk (because the nature and scope is often unclear) and (therefore) do not know what measures they should take. In addition, SMEs often have little in-house resources and knowledge to properly arm themselves against cybercriminals. By sharing lessons learned and providing SMEs with best practices, the practical value of this research is therefore high.
