Cybersecurity news for Windows, Ubuntu and the web

Grey is background news. Red is the most serious: a flaw being used in attacks right now, or one with the highest published rating.
A bigger planet means more people, companies or devices are affected. A small one reaches few, or nobody has said how many yet.
Click a planet. You get what happened and how far it reaches, then the steps to take: change that password, update that phone, slow down before you click. When a step needs showing, one click shows you how.
The news says what went wrong for someone else. Stay safe is the other half: nine short guides to the habits that stop most of it, from passwords to spotting a scam. Each is a handful of steps you can tick off.
Beneath the guides are the newest warnings from official sources, so you hear about a scam before it reaches you.
Plain words: what happened, how far it reaches and what to do about it. It leads with the things most people own or use: your phone, your browser, your accounts.
Every story in the field's own terms, for people who work in security: identifiers, published scores, whether a flaw is under attack, and response steps.
Prefer a list? The briefing ranks every story, most important first, and can be searched and sorted. It works with a keyboard and a screen reader too.
Free. No account needed, nothing else to install first, and it keeps itself up to date.
