An AI security newsletter for where the two threats meet

AI security is the fastest-moving and most hyped corner of both fields. Every week brings a new claim: an unstoppable AI attacker, a magic AI defender, a model risk that will end the enterprise. Most of it is untested. Some of it is real and urgent. Telling them apart is the job.

Hype Check Now covers exactly this intersection. AI-driven attacks, model and data risk, the security of AI systems, and the vendor claims flooding the category. One claim a week, checked against the evidence, with a verdict and the sources. It is written by a CISSP-, ISSAP-, and ISSMP-certified security leader who reads the research, not just the press release.

How each issue works

Same skeleton every issue, a new claim each week, built to read in under two minutes. A hype score from zero to one hundred sets the frame. An executive verdict states the call in one line. A Reality Check walks the data with one clean chart. Two or three cited quotes from named leaders frame the debate. A signal-versus-noise sweep runs the week's news with quick verdicts, and one sourced Number of the Week closes it out.

Why it holds up

Every number is real and citable; nothing is invented or estimated. Public-figure quotes are verbatim and attributed. When a verdict is provisional, it says so. There is no vendor paying for the call, so the verdict answers to the evidence and lands wherever the data points. That independence is the product.
