Our Story

CyberUnplugged was born in traffic. Not the network kind — the bumper-to-bumper, brake-light-blinking kind. After a long day in the chaotic world of cybersecurity, an idea sparked somewhere between a red light and a podcast queue: What if staying updated didn’t have to feel like more work?

That spark grew into a mission — to transform the way cybersecurity professionals, CISOs, and students engage with research and trends. Conversations with stressed-out analysts, overworked CISOs, and overwhelmed PhD students revealed a common theme: everyone was drowning in complexity, but no one had the time or energy to decode it all.

CyberUnplugged became the answer — a space where cutting-edge research is distilled into short, calming audio episodes that educate without overwhelming. It's not just about staying ahead in cyber — it’s about doing it with a clear mind and maybe even a deep breath or two.

Welcome to the calmer side of cybersecurity!
