I got tired of cybersecurity news reading like a compliance manual written by a sleep-deprived lawyer, so I built Threat Road — a daily, 5-minute, plain-English cybersecurity briefing that’s actually fun.
Short, punchy summaries of the biggest breaches, zero-days, ransomware hits, outages, and AI threats — without jargon, doomscrolling, or vendor marketing fluff.
Each issue includes:
The day’s high-impact cyber incidents (breaches, 0-days, supply chain hits)
Plain-English explanations (e.g., “RCE = hackers can take over your system”)
Sarcastic commentary so the news hurts less
Actionable security steps anyone can use
All in under 5 minutes
Why? Because the security industry has enough 2,000-word PDF advisories and not enough writing that sounds like a human who slept recently.
If you want a fast, useful snapshot of what’s actually happening in cybersecurity — without feeling like you’re reading tax law — here it is:

Would love your feedback, especially from people who do IR, AppSec, dev, ops, or just like watching the internet catch fire in slow motion.
(And if you hate it, tell me why so I can fix it before it becomes another abandoned Substack graveyard.)
