Our news section has one purpose: help companies understand what happened and what to do about it on their own servers. Here is how we choose, verify and write what we publish.
Our analyses cover attacks and data breaches that have been confirmed, vulnerabilities actively exploited in products used on business servers, and important official alerts. Each one follows the same plan: what happened, how the attackers got in or who is affected, what to do now, and our take.
Press headlines are collected every two hours from specialised publications; each one shows the outlet's name and links to the original article.
We do not publish product launches, sponsored content, rumours or claims from a single unverified source.
Every analysis relies on at least one official or vendor source — a national cybersecurity agency, the vendor's security bulletin, the victim's or an authority's statement — and on at least two different sites. Every number, version, date and CVE identifier comes from a source we actually read. The press is used to complement, and is always attributed. If the essentials cannot be confirmed, the topic is dropped. All sources are listed at the end of each article.
We name a victim only when it has confirmed the incident itself, or when an authority has. Likewise, a supplier blamed for an incident is named only if the victim, the supplier or an authority has named it; otherwise we write “a service provider”. Our aim is to explain, not to point fingers.
The analyses are drafted with the help of artificial intelligence, from the sources listed, following the rules on this page. Each one is then checked automatically (structure, sources, the 8 languages, no copied text) and, for articles written automatically on weekdays, published after a two-hour delay during which publication can be stopped. Everything is published under the responsibility of Top-Secured's publication director, named in our legal notice.
The texts are our own: no sentence is copied from the sources and none of their images are used. The illustrations are generated by us.
Spotted an error? Tell us: we correct it, and the article then shows its update date. We publish no sponsored content and no paid links. When an article suggests one of our free checks or services, it is clearly presented as ours.
