# About

> FirewallSync is an independent publication of practical cybersecurity writing for the engineers who have to implement security, not just audit it.

FirewallSync covers the parts of cybersecurity that change how engineering teams work day to day: access control, application and API security, cloud identity, incident response, and the new risks that come with AI agents and LLM applications. We write for the people who have to implement security, not just the people auditing it.

## What we cover

- **[AI Security](/categories/ai-security/):** prompt injection, MCP servers, AI agents and LLM data leakage.
- **[AppSec & APIs](/categories/appsec/):** APIs, webhooks, secrets and the software supply chain.
- **[Identity & Access](/categories/identity-access/):** authentication, MFA, passkeys and least privilege.
- **[Cloud Security](/categories/cloud-security/):** cloud IAM, workload identity and zero trust.
- **[Security Operations](/categories/security-operations/):** incident response, logging, alerting and backups.
- **[Privacy & Third-Party Risk](/categories/privacy-risk/):** data minimization, GDPR and SaaS vendor risk.
- **[Fundamentals](/categories/fundamentals/):** plain-English explanations of core security ideas.

## How we write

Every article starts with the problem a team actually runs into, then gives a concrete fix: a rollout order, a checklist, a comparison. We prefer field-tested advice over vendor feature lists, and we say when a recommendation depends on your team's size or risk tolerance. The details are in our [editorial policy](/editorial-policy/).

## Who writes it
