A community-driven podcast, field notes, and newsletter on how cyber defenders actually use AI — what works, what breaks, and what we learn together.
Nobody has the next four months figured out.
Not the vendors, not the analysts, not us. Defenders are being told AI changes everything — and handed very few honest answers about what to actually do on Monday morning.
So we're figuring it out in the open, together. No hype, no gatekeeping, no vendor demos dressed up as insight. Real experiments, real trade-offs, real code — including the parts that broke. Newcomers and veterans both welcome. Cybersecurity is a team sport.
Four ways in.
Real conversations
The people doing the work, on what's actually working in their week — not a roadmap slide. Concepts you can take and make your own.
Build logs from the trenches
What we tried, what we'd do differently, what fell over. The messy middle, written down honestly.
The signal, monthly
A curated pulse of AI-for-defense — the few things worth your attention, pulled out of the noise.
Learning out loud
A space to trade what works. We open it when there's a core to hold it — not a day before.
Episode 01 — the manifesto.
Where this is going, who it's for, and why defending is something we do together.
# communityBuilt in the open. By defenders, for defenders.
