As an information security professional with over 5 years of experience I have worked with several different security tools, which has given me a good understanding of what companies look for in their products and services. Additionally, I worked with hundreds of different employees and clients, from analyst level up to C-suite executives. From these experiences I’ve learned to communicate effectively to different audiences with varying levels of technical knowledge. From those experiences I’ve developed my own style of writing that focuses on these points:
Highlighting the pain-points that your product or service will fix for the user.
Use everyday language that all users can understand, except where it adds value to discuss technical details.
Create separate sections or articles for non-technical and technical audiences.
Put the most important points of your material first, there’s no guarantee people will read your material until the end.
“Pictures tell a thousands words”, always use diagrams or videos where possible to explain complex topics.
What do I deliver?

White papers
Blog posts
