Why Start My Personal Blog on Cybersecurity?
Cybersecurity is rarely black and white. It’s a field filled with complexities, nuances, and constant evolution. Over the years, I’ve felt a growing need to create a space where I can share my personal perspectives, separate from the work I do at Rivanorth.
This blog is my way of exploring the grey areas in cybersecurity, delving into future predictions, sharing insights into where the industry is heading, and offering personal security tips. It’s also a place to react to security news with my own take, rather than through the lens of a business view.
What I’ll Be Writing About
The focus of this blog will revolve around my passions:
- Application Security: From securing web applications to performing code reviews, this area is close to my heart. It’s where I feel most confident and where I’ve spent significant time honing my expertise.
- Blockchain Security: With the rapid adoption of blockchain technology, security has often struggled to keep up. I’ll share my thoughts on smart contract vulnerabilities, trends in decentralised applications, and what the future holds for blockchain security.
- Dark Web and Cybercrime: The dark web remains one of the most misunderstood areas of cybersecurity. I plan to dive deep into how businesses can monitor dark web activity, spot emerging threats, and protect themselves against cybercrime.
These topics aren’t just professional interests—they’re areas where I’m constantly learning, researching, and reflecting.
Why It Matters
Cybersecurity impacts everyone, from individuals to global enterprises. Yet, so much of the discussion around it feels either overly technical or alarmist. Through this blog, I hope to strike a balance, offering insights that are grounded in reality but accessible enough to spark meaningful conversations.
I’m not aiming for lengthy essays or overly verbose posts. The goal is to share thoughts that resonate and leave readers with something actionable or thought, provoking.
Looking Ahead
Whether it’s predicting the future of cybersecurity, unpacking industry trends, or simply sharing a unique take on current events, this blog is where I’ll speak my mind.
If you’re interested in application security, blockchain, or the murky world of the dark web, stay tuned. I’m excited to build this space and connect with others who share a passion for these topics.
