You ever sit in one of those vendor-sponsored “thought leadership” panels and wonder, when does the real talk start?
Yeah—me too.
So I stopped showing up. And started joining private IT roundtables instead. No recordings. No selling. Just a handful of sharp, scarred-up tech leaders swapping war stories over coffee (or whiskey, depending on the breach).
Let me tell you—this is where the gold is.
“We hired a red team… they got in through our interns.”
“Our CEO clicked a phishing link from his yacht.”
“We killed 4 tools last quarter. Not a single tear.”
I’ve been writing about these sessions—not naming names, not burning bridges—but capturing what really matters. The strategies that work in the field, the ones that fall flat, and the quiet, unspoken truths most execs won’t admit on stage.
It’s not theory. It’s survival.
You’ll find everything from real-world zero trust implementation screw-ups… to how top CIOs are rethinking hybrid infrastructure (again)… to why burnout is hitting CISOs harder than ransomware.
This is the stuff that helps you lead sharper, fight smarter, and stay ahead of the chaos.
No ads.
No fluff.
Just straight, unsanitized insight.

If you’ve got scars, stories, or strategy—bring ’em. The comments are open and the forum’s for us.
Let’s keep it real. Let’s make it useful.
Because no one else will.
