About the blog.
Phishing for Answers is more than a cyber blog, it is a resource for all those interested in technology and the future of the digital age. This blog focuses on informing readers about the latest cyber threats, developments and debates in technology policy, and risk mitigation strategies for protecting online information. Every post is written for every reader, incorporating topics relevant for all audiences, using simplified language, and summarizing complex technical concepts when necessary.
My Mission.
This site is intended to build a community of readers who are passionate about cybersecurity and online data protection. Phishing for Answers strives to publish content that encompasses every aspect of the cybersecurity industry, beyond prevailing themes of network hacking and Dark Web use.
Because technology is created, operated and exploited by humans, it is equally important that related information be accessible to every person regardless of technical expertise. Whether readers are IT directors at major corporations or shift nurses wanting to learn more about information security, Phishing for Answers publishes content that is relevant and digestible for everyone.
