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.

Eavesdropping, interception, hijacking information and communication
Eavesdropping, interception or hijacking refers to a class of actions aiming to listen, interrupt, or seize control of a third-party communication without consent. Used for the interception of information and communication, interfering of radiations and compromising messages. Often used in espionage, rogue hardware or direct software interceptions. Sometimes performed by unharmful hackers and script kiddies, but also widely used by nation states and cyber criminals.
These techniques can be deployed through practically all devices connected through the Internet (IoT) as smart cars and telephones and by using special techniques. The techniques can be also related to wireless and radio transmissions that can be hidden in physical spaces or installed within a network. Examples are interference due to electromagnetic induction or electromagnetic radiation, malicious or fraudulent repeat or delay of messages, network traffic manipulation, Man in the middle techniques or software defined networking (SDN).
