The voice of cyber.
Independent cybersecurity journalism, audio and intelligence. Filed daily from four bureaus.
KBI.Media exists because the cybersecurity industry deserves better than what most of its trade press provides. The vendor-funded outlets answer to the vendors. The aggregators republish CVE feeds and call it coverage. The general business press cycles back to the same five analysts and writes around the technical detail.
We sit in the middle — staff writers and a global network of contributors with operational security backgrounds — and produce reporting, interviews, audio and intelligence that practitioners and decision-makers can use without translation.
Independence is the operating model, not a marketing line. Our commercial relationships — event-anchored coverage, Priority Partner distribution, Topic Spotlights — are explicitly disclosed and structurally separated from editorial. Vendors don’t shape coverage. We say what we think; if the industry is uncomfortable, the industry is uncomfortable.
Four formats. One editorial standard.
Articles and essays.
Original reporting from KBI staff and commissioned contributor essays. From threat-actor profiles to industry analysis, M&A breakdowns to long-form investigations.
KBI.FM podcasts.
KBKast (200+ episodes), Access Granted exclusives, Destination Cyber (careers), event-recorded interviews, and end-client-supported series. Audio is a primary format, not an afterthought.
Threat Intel feed.
Synthesised threat reporting from primary sources: CISA, NCSC, ENISA, ASD, vendor PSIRTs. CVSS-scored, KBI-reviewed, cross-referenced. Free editorial layer; deeper analysis behind a soft gate.
The KBI Dossier.
The Communiqué (weekly editorial) and the Feed (your customised security news roll-up). Both free, both ad-free. Subscribe.
Four bureaus, three time zones, one editorial chain.
We file daily across Americas, EMEA and APAC. Coverage rolls between bureaus so a story can be live before the next one wakes up.
Bureau-specific desk contacts are on the contact page. For confidential tips and source protection, see the tips section.
The masthead.
KBI.Media was founded by Karissa Breen, a security industry executive and broadcaster, in 2020. The editorial team has since grown across the four bureaus, supported by a contributor network of practising security leaders, researchers and analysts.
A detailed masthead listing — editor-in-chief, senior reporters, bureau leads, contributing writers — will publish here with the launch of the new platform. In the interim, queries about specific coverage should go to the contact addresses on the contact page.
KBI.Media is published by TMFE Pty Ltd, registered in Australia. Commercial and editorial inquiries are handled separately and never mixed; see editorial standards for the firewalls in detail.
