Happy 4th Birthday, Krebs OnSecurity.com!
Summary: KrebsOnSecurity.com marked its fourth anniversary on Dec. 29, 2013, with the blog reporting between 10,000 and 15,000 visitors per day and on track to exceed 1 million pageviews that month. The post cites the site's 2013 scoops on breaches at Adobe, Bit9, Experian, LexisNexis, Target and The Washington Post, and notes readers submitted more than 10,000 comments over the year.
What's compelling: A bank ISO quoted in the post says he read the Target breach on the blog and alerted bank operations and senior management about what was coming in the next 24 hours, before it hit mainstream media - a reminder that the gap between a breach breaking on a specialist blog and reaching your executive team is time you can use or lose.
