Paul Roberts Joins Threatpost

In the year and a half since we first launched Threatpost, the site has grown very quickly, probably more quickly than any of us had even hoped it might. We’ve added a couple of regular podcasts, original videos, developed a stable of terrific regular contributors and recently launched our first on-demand video event. And now we’re making a major addition to our editorial staff.

I’m very excited and proud to announce that Paul Roberts is bringing his talents to Threatpost. Paul is a well-known personality in the security community, having started out covering security for the IDG News Service before moving to eWeek magazine, where he and I worked together for several years. Paul then moved on to InfoWorld before spending the last few years as an analyst at The 451 Group.

Paul has a wealth of experience in the security industry and brings a strong background in both journalism and analysis to the Threatpost staff. He’ll be writing news and analysis pieces, bringing his sharp analytical eye and deep knowledge of the industry to bear. Look for in-depth features and news coverage from Paul as he gets his feet under him. Paul’s a terrific addition to our staff, which will still include Ryan Naraine and me and our regular set of contributors, so we’re very excited for this next evolution of Threatpost.

Hang on, because it’ll be a fun ride.
