About East Bay Cyber

East Bay Cyber is a practitioner-grade cybersecurity publication covering threat intelligence, vulnerability research, and defensive security operations. We publish daily threat digests, CVE explainers, tool comparisons, FAQs, and a living security glossary — written for security engineers, IT administrators, and SMB owners who need signal without noise.

What We Cover

• Threat Digests — curated daily briefings on active campaigns, sector-specific incidents, and attacker TTPs.
• CVE Watch — plain-language explainers on high-severity vulnerabilities: what's affected, what the exploit surface is, and what to do.
• Tool Comparisons — side-by-side analysis of security products across EDR, SIEM, MDR, and related categories.
• Security Glossary — authoritative definitions of security concepts, built for practitioners and accessible to beginners.
• FAQs — direct answers to common security questions, optimised for clarity.

Editorial Standards & Methodology

Our coverage is built from authoritative primary sources, not recycled press releases. For vulnerability coverage we work from the NIST National Vulnerability Database, the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and vendor security advisories. Severity is reported using the published CVSS vector and KEV status from those catalogs — we do not invent our own scores. Where a detail is unknown at publication time, we say so explicitly rather than guessing.

We hold every piece to a consistent standard: state what is affected and the specific fixed version, distinguish confirmed in-the-wild exploitation from proof-of-concept, link the primary sources we relied on, and lead with what a defender should actually do. We do not publish vendor press releases, sponsored rankings, or pay-to-play comparisons. Affiliate relationships are disclosed on every page where they exist — see our Disclaimer.

Corrections & Accountability

East Bay Cyber is an independently operated publication, and a human editor is accountable for what we publish and for correcting it.
