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.

Software applications
Software applications are collections of functions and instructions in an electronic format that can be used for different goals. They are usually designed to create, store and transmit specific types of data across one or more digital devices and deliver capabilities to end-users. Software applications can also be subversive, such as various types of malware, or provide cybersecurity, such as a firewall, but these specific categories are stored under ‘IT Cybersecurity & Privacy specific technology and threats’. Here we focus on specific domains of application (fintech, legal) and security functions (crowd management, decision support).
Software applications can be installed on multiple types of devices, such as mobile phones, computers or dedicated hardware. The source code of an application can be written in different languages, including Java, C++, Python, Ruby, Visual Basic, R, Pascal, Fortran, Cobol, Lisp, ALGOL, Prolog. Each language has its strengths and weaknesses; therefore, the application area often differs. Sloppy programming can lead to different faults, from crashes to logical faults to data elimination and proneness to cyber-attacks.
