Cybersecurity ghostwriting is a narrow specialty: a writer who can both handle the technical material and turn it into a book in the client’s voice. These articles come from a ghostwriter who ran enterprise security for two decades, wrote policies against NIST CSF and 800-53, and was technical editor on Cyberheist for KnowBe4. The expertise is real, which is why the books are accurate.

Access ControlSecurity is mostly dull work nobody wants to do, patching, access reviews, backups, and it is also the entire job. Two decades in, the one time everything broke, it was backups that saved us, barely: a triple failure, snapped tapes,…
BackupsAttackers rarely come through the firewall; if they do, you were sloppy, because the firewall is the easy part. The real vectors are social engineering and the insider, and the insider is the most common and most overlooked. Two decades…
CISOI wrote a company's security policies against NIST CSF and 800-53, and now I ghostwrite books for the leaders who do this work. Most policy documents fail for two reasons: nobody knows who owns each step, and nobody knows which…
