Signal, the public edition
What is changing in how security products are designed, and what does it mean for the people who use them?
For exampleOne item might pair identity vendors shipping "agent identities" in the same week with the question none of them answered: what does a person see when an agent is stopped?

Why it matters
News about security products is written for buyers and analysts of the market. Very little is written about the screens and decisions inside them, across all eight areas rather than just one.
What I'm trying
- Every item tagged by area and by the decision it touches.
- Sources linked on every item; opinions marked as opinions.
- A coverage strip, so it's visible when an area has been quiet.
What would show it works
People forward it to a colleague because it explained something they hadn't seen joined up.
Next step
Issue 1 is out. Next: keep the schedule, and add the coverage strip once a few issues exist.
