Sergiu Gatlan
Sergiu Gatlan covers cyber incidents and enterprise security flaws with a focus on clear, timeline-driven reporting that shows how attacks unfold and how vendors respond. He writes for BleepingComputer, where he concentrates on vulnerabilities, exploitation campaigns, and the security of widely used platforms and services.
Security incidents and active exploitation
Gatlan tracks ongoing cyberattacks in near real time, often centering his coverage on who is being targeted, how intrusions work, and what organizations should do next. He reports on high‑profile exploitation of enterprise software, including cases where Windows and Microsoft Exchange are compromised at events like Pwn2Own, and he explains which products and versions are affected and how attackers chain bugs together. His incident pieces commonly describe attack vectors, exploitation status in the wild, and the availability of patches or mitigations. He regularly covers ransomware operations, data‑theft campaigns, and breaches affecting major service providers, treating each as a technical case study rather than a headline‑only event.
Vulnerabilities, patches, and zero‑day bugs
A large share of his work is structured around vulnerability disclosure and patch cycles. Gatlan writes recurring coverage of monthly security updates from major vendors, summarizing priority flaws, zero‑day issues, and actively exploited bugs in concise lists that emphasize severity and practical risk. He reports on critical remote code execution and privilege escalation bugs in operating systems, cloud platforms, and popular enterprise products, often noting when proof‑of‑concept exploits are released or integrated into exploit kits. His headlines highlight the specific component or feature at risk, the impact if exploited, and whether attackers are already using the flaw, which helps security teams triage quickly.
Cloud, enterprise platforms, and widely deployed services
Within the broader security beat, Gatlan focuses on software and services that underpin business and government infrastructure. He covers security issues in Windows, Microsoft 365, Exchange, and other core enterprise platforms, as well as flaws in VPN appliances, networking gear, and collaboration tools. His reporting often links a technical weakness to its operational consequences, such as remote access for attackers, data exfiltration, or service disruption. He pays particular attention to misconfigurations and security gaps that affect large user bases, including cloud tenants and managed service customers, and he follows vendor guidance and follow‑up advisories as they evolve.
Threat actors, malware, and defensive guidance
Gatlan frequently reports on the tools and tactics of threat actors alongside the technical details of specific attacks. He covers new malware strains, ransomware families, and exploitation frameworks, including how they propagate, what they target, and how defenders can detect and block them. His stories often incorporate indicators of compromise, detection notes, and configuration details that are directly useful to security practitioners. He also tracks law enforcement actions, takedowns, and industry responses that shift the threat landscape, treating them as part of the same operational picture as the underlying vulnerabilities and exploits.

Adam Conway
Adam Conway stands out for treating consumer tech as systems to experiment with rather than products to set and forget. He is a journalist at XDA who covers phones, networks, and DIY-friendly hardware with a tinkerer’s mindset. His work focuses on hands-on testing, clear explanations, and practical ways to push devices further. He writes in depth about enthusiast hardware such as ESP32-based touchscreens, mesh networking projects, and off-grid communication tools, emphasizing setup, usability, and trade-offs. On the mobile team, he covers Android phones, software updates, and ecosystem changes, digging into network performance, battery behavior, and connectivity features. He also writes detailed how-tos on modding, customization, and configuration, with a focus on risks, prerequisites, and real-world use. His coverage is analytical, enthusiast-focused, and aimed at readers who act on his reporting.
Adnan Farooqui
Adnan Farooqui is a technology journalist at SamMobile whose work centers on Samsung’s hardware, software and strategy, with a focus on what its moves mean for the company’s future. He treats foldable phones as a strategic inflection point, using devices like the Galaxy Z Flip line to examine portfolio strategy, demand, cost and competition, and to track how long Samsung sustains product lines. He also covers the everyday Galaxy ecosystem of phones, tablets, wearables and the software that connects them, following One UI and Android updates, security patches and new features. His reporting ties product news to business decisions, pricing, launch strategy, software support windows and subscription pushes. He blends fast news with analysis, separates confirmed facts from his own reading of events, and uses plain language to frame why Samsung’s choices matter to different buyers.
Alexander Haro
Alexander Haro stands out for surf and ocean culture coverage that focuses on how people really use gear and technology in the water. He writes for surf readers who care about feel, not specs, and he often uses specific surfers, sessions, and waves to show how new equipment, design ideas, and board-building trends change the ride. He writes regularly about surf equipment, especially foiling, and he covers surf craft, foils, and the practical effects of new gear on paddling, speed, and wave connection. His work is short, session-driven, and video-led, with measured, conversational reporting that avoids hype while respecting surf history and newer ideas.
Alíz Kovács-Zöldi
Alíz Kovács-Zöldi covers photography technology where engineering detail meets practical shooting. She writes for Amateur Photographer, focusing on camera gear, optical design and how new hardware shapes the way images are made. She covers camera and lens technology, especially lenses and other core parts of a kit. She looks at how new products are built and what they are designed to do, not just their spec sheets. Her stories stay close to the tech, explaining focal lengths, focusing systems and form factors in clear language. In her piece on Thypoch’s first autofocus lens with three prime focal lengths in one unit, she shows how she explains unconventional gear and its intended use. Her beat is hardware-focused, tracking advances in autofocus, optics and physical design through concrete examples of new cameras and lenses.
