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.

Societal actors
Societal actors are institutions or organisations, such as political parties, business organizations, trade unions and non-governmental organizations (NGO’s). Societal actors usually have both a formal and informal network of connections, which can be related to local, regional, national and/or international actors. Also, the way a societal actor is structured and organized is mostly formal. For example, a political party can have connections with other local political parties, regional municipalities and the national government and maintain a formal organizational structure in which an individual or board leads the party. Depending on the type of societal actor, the environment in which it operates, the connections that it has and the way it is (formally) structured, the impact that a societal actor can have on other actors and the general society varies tremendously.
