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.

The State of AI in Cybersecurity
While AI’s effects on the threat landscape are already being felt, many security leaders and practitioners feel they are not ready for what’s to come.
AI may help reduce the industry-wide skills shortage that has held defenders back, but only if practitioners can maximize the value of these new tools in real-world workflows. There also remains a significant need for education within the field to allow for cyber security leaders and practitioners to apply the right types of AI in the right places within their tool stack.
To effectively aid defenders, AI must:
-
Personalize security for every organization, since risks depend on unique attributes like users, infrastructure, and assets
-
Not interfere with operational workflows or employee productivity
-
Be transparent about its decision-making and work alongside human teams to simplify time-consuming tasks
like alert triage
-
Integrate with the wider security stack seamlessly while helping humans make informed decisions based on
comprehensive data
-
Assist security teams at every stage of the event lifecycle, making recommendations and suggesting next steps
