How To Stay Ahead of Cybersecurity Threats in Just 3 Minutes Per Week (Without The Overwhelm)
Finally Understand What’s Happening In Cybersecurity Without Spending Hours Lost In Endless Security Alerts
You’re not alone if cybersecurity feels overwhelming right now.
Every day, new vulnerabilities are discovered. Threat actors evolve their tactics. Zero-day exploits make headlines. And somewhere between the fear-mongering and the technical jargon, you’re left wondering: what actually matters? What do I really need to know?
You don’t want to fall behind, but you also don’t have hours to spend reading 47 security articles or decoding CVE reports. You just want someone to cut through the noise and tell you what’s critical in plain English.
That’s Exactly Why I Created Pithy Security.
It’s a weekly cybersecurity newsletter designed specifically for busy security professionals, IT leaders, and tech-savvy people who want to stay informed without the time investment or the panic. Every Friday, you get a simple 3-minute read that covers the most critical cybersecurity developments from the past week.
No fear-mongering. No overwhelming information dumps. Just clear, concise intelligence that helps you understand what’s happening and why it matters to YOUR organization and YOUR career.
Think of it as your personal security intelligence briefing. While everyone else is drowning in security alerts, you’ll have clarity, confidence, and those precious hours of your life back.
And the best part? Pithy Security is 100% free. Always has been. Always will be.
Pithy Security is read by security pros, hackers, IT nerds, and PhD-level security experts who are way smarter than me. You’ll be in good company if you join. And it’s 100% free.
Here’s Exactly What You Get Every Week (Completely Free)
Every Friday morning, a fresh issue of Pithy Security lands in your inbox. Here’s what’s inside:
The Most Critical Security Stories That Actually Matter: Not every vulnerability deserves your attention. I do the heavy lifting of monitoring hundreds of sources, then distill everything down to the threats and developments that will genuinely impact your world. Each story is explained in clear, jargon-free language that respects your intelligence without requiring a CISSP certification.
Why It Matters To You: Context is everything. I don’t just tell you what happened, I help you understand why you should care. How does this affect your infrastructure? Your team? Your security posture? You’ll always know the “so what?” behind the news.
Zero-Day Vulnerabilities Without The Hype: When a critical vulnerability drops, you need the facts fast. I cut through the vendor marketing and media sensationalism to give you what you actually need to know: the risk, the impact, and what to do about it.
3 Minutes, Start To Finish: Your time is valuable. I promise every issue can be read in 3 minutes or less. Open it with your morning coffee, scan it between meetings, or read it before your Friday standup. You’ll finish feeling informed, not more overwhelmed.
Peace Of Mind: No more FOMO. No more wondering if you missed a critical threat. No more guilty feelings about those 247 unread security newsletters in your inbox. You’ll have everything you need to stay informed and feel confident about your security posture.
All of this. Every week. Completely free. No credit card required. No strings attached.

You work in security, IT, or any technical role where threats impact your work. You want to spot risks and stay ahead without the stress of information overload.
You value your time and attention. You’d rather spend 3 focused minutes learning something valuable than lose an hour drowning in security blogs and Reddit threads.
You’re the kind of person who likes to be “in the know.” You appreciate having informed opinions and being able to contribute intelligently to security conversations.
You want actionable intelligence, not just news. You’re looking for insights that help you make better decisions, not just more data to process.
If any of that sounds like you, you’re in the right place.
