Technology Monitoring
In today’s digital landscape, cyber threats, which harness the latest digital technologies, evolve at an unprecedented speed. Keeping up with the latest threat intelligence and assessing their potential impact is challenging.
A Scientific and Quantitative Approach
Traditionally, technology monitoring heavily relied on manual and qualitative methods. In contrast, we utilize recent advances in Big Data and Artificial Intelligence to enhance technology monitoring, offering not only a more quantitative approach but also integrating predictive methods. Our approach is mainly based on open data and rigorous scientific methodologies.
An Exclusive Technology and Market Monitoring Platform
Our approach is also based on our in-house Technology and Market Monitoring (TMM) software platform, which we develop and maintain in collaboration with government, industry, and academic partners. Our TMM platform aggregates valuable insights, which our technology analysts combine with their research and scouting expertise to provide a comprehensive analysis.
TM Team Mission Statement
- Mission: Our mission is to identify, monitor, analyze and forecast trends related to cybersecurity technologies.
- Vision: Our vision is to become a recognized Technology Observatory in Switzerland and abroad.
- Goal: Our goal is to produce community-driven and actionable Technology Intelligence for National Security, Security Policy, Market Research, and Strategic Management.
- Values: Our team works with the following values: scientific, quantitative, exclusive, open (access, source, data) and collaborative: we connect academia, industry, and government.
Our mission statement is crafted to contribute towards Measure 4, which centers on the analysis of trends, risks, and dependencies, as outlined in the Swiss National Cyber Strategy (NCS). The preceding NCS strategy for the years 2018-2022 underscored the significance of «early identification of trends and technologies and knowledge building» in its Measure 1. In alignment with this, the team also aligns its efforts with the Cyber DDPS Strategy, specifically addressing the key task of «Trend Monitoring and Support.» This involves conducting thorough technology and market monitoring, engaging in international scouting of startups, and maintaining a collaborative network.
