A real-time record of the pressure points shaping Europe's security environment. Hybrid threats don't announce themselves—they emerge as scattered incidents that disappear from the news cycle. HWT preserves what gets forgotten, turning signals into structured, searchable events that enable correlation over weeks, months, and years.
