Each planet is one story.
The app reads public security news every hour. When several outlets cover the same event, they become one planet, not five.
Cybersecurity news for Windows, Ubuntu and the web
Today's cybersecurity news, drawn as planets.
Every hack, scam and security fix in the news becomes a planet. Red means dangerous. Big means it reaches a lot of people. One look tells you what matters today.

Three things to know, and you can read the whole sky.
Colour is danger.
Grey is background news. Red is the most serious: a flaw being used in attacks right now, or one with the highest published rating.

Size is reach.
A bigger planet means more people, companies or devices are affected. When nobody has said how many, the planet stays small.
Made for everyone, not only experts.
Everyday
Plain words: what happened, how far it reaches and what to do about it. It leads with the things most people own or use: your phone, your browser, your accounts.
Professional
Every story in the field's own terms, for people who work in security: identifiers, published scores, whether a flaw is under attack, and response steps.
Prefer a list? The briefing ranks every story, most important first, and can be searched and sorted. It works with a keyboard and a screen reader too.
It also shows you what to do.
The news says what went wrong for someone else. Stay safe is the other half: nine short guides to the habits that stop most of it, from passwords to spotting a scam. Each is a handful of steps you can tick off.
Beneath the guides are the newest warnings from official sources. And when a story says “update your phone”, one click shows you how.
Download it and open it. That is the whole setup.
Free. No account needed, nothing else to install first, and it keeps itself up to date.
