Your product solves the problems
we cover every day.
50,000 cybersecurity practitioners. 47% open rate. When we publish a zero-day advisory, 23,500 engineers read it before their morning standup, and your brand can be the first thing they see.
◈ Q3 2026 newsletter slots: limited availability
Why sponsors choose Decryption Digest
CTR-derived clicks = 23,500 × 9.2%. Sponsor placement performance varies by copy and format.
The engagement numbers your CFO will ask about
Decryption Digest is written by a CISSP for practitioners who are actively managing threats, not scrolling for news. That intent gap is why our engagement metrics are structurally different from general tech media, and why your ad lands in a different mental state entirely.
2.3x the B2B newsletter average of 20-22%. Your ad is seen, not buried in a promotions tab.
LinkedIn sponsored content averages 0.4% CTR at 20× the cost. Our readers click because the content earns it.
Not IT generalists. Practitioners who write the shortlist, run the POC, and present the recommendation to the CISO.
Who reads Decryption Digest
These are not IT help-desk tickets. Decryption Digest readers are the people who get paged at 2 AM when a zero-day drops, who write the security architecture docs, and who sign off on vendor evaluations. Your ad lands in the inbox of the practitioner, not the intern forwarding the newsletter.
