Why it’s great #
If you’re interested in cybersecurity, privacy, or staying informed about the evolving threat landscape, Security Now is a podcast you shouldn’t miss. Hosted by Steve Gibson the creator of SpinRite (you should check that out as well), and Leo Laporte of TWiT.tv , the podcast sheds light on everything from zero-day vulnerabilities to password manager failures. Oh man I will have to go through my LastPass saga at somepoint.
Why I think Security Now stands out? #
Each episode digs into the nuts and bolts of modern security topics. They balances the technical depth with clear explanations, making even advanced topics accessible to non-experts.
The show covers the latest security news, often with critical insight you won’t find in mainstream tech blogs. Whether it’s another issue with a Microsoft Patch Tuesday or a new vulnerability in the wild, Security Now gives you the context you need to understand its implications.
I have enjoyed listen and learning from this podcast for several years. I’ve found it useful in getting up to speed on what’s happening on the cybersecurity front and also found their insights helpful.

- IT professionals
- Cybersecurity students

My final thoughts #
Security Now is more than a podcast — it’s an education in network security, cryptography, privacy, and real-world problem-solving. If you’re building your own digital literacy or securing an organization’s infrastructure, you should give it a listen.
