TechSpective’s Cybersecurity section covers cybersecurity the way security professionals actually think about it — not as a compliance checkbox or a vendor marketing opportunity, but as a real and evolving discipline with genuine stakes. The coverage spans threat intelligence, incident response, zero trust architecture, identity security, ransomware, AI risk, and the business decisions that sit underneath all of it.
What you won’t find here is breathless coverage of every new breach headline or uncritical vendor press releases dressed up as analysis. What you will find is context — who the threat actors are, what the research actually shows, and what organizations and individuals can do about it. Contributors include CISSP-credentialed journalists, former FBI and intelligence community professionals, and practitioners writing from direct operational experience.
Recent coverage has examined why ransomware deserves renewed attention despite years of fatigue, how agentic AI is creating new attack surfaces faster than defenses are adapting, and what breach investigations consistently reveal about the gap between deployed security tools and actual security posture. The archive runs nearly 100 pages deep.
Whether you’re a security practitioner looking for substantive industry analysis, a technology leader trying to make sense of the threat landscape, or just someone who wants to understand what’s actually happening in cybersecurity beneath the noise — this is coverage written by people who know the difference between a real threat and a vendor talking point.

The Web browser is probably the most-used application on most PCs and mobile devices. I’d say that email might get used more, but people are increasingly using Web-based email services like Google’s Gmail or Microsoft’s Outlook.com, so the browser is

One of the issues that has plagued security since the dawn of the information age is that it gets no respect. Businesses recognize that security is necessary, but for many it’s considered a necessary evil, and it’s perceived as a
