Happy 10th Birthday, Krebs OnSecurity.com

Summary: KrebsOnSecurity.com marked its 10th anniversary on December 29, 2019, having published more than 1,800 stories focused mainly on cybercrime, computer security and user privacy. Over that decade the site drew roughly 40 million unique visitors, nearly 100 million pageviews, more than 37,000 newsletter subscribers and over 100,000 comments.

Why it matters: The site's reach - 40 million unique visitors and 100,000-plus comments - reflects how much of the security community relies on a single independent reporter's output, and the anniversary post notes that one reader reported the site being hit with a DDoS the day before.
