Terms of Use
The short version. Threat Desk is free to use. Summaries are written by AI and can be wrong, so check the original source before acting on anything. Articles belong to their publishers, and events to their organisers. Don't misuse the service.
Using Threat Desk
By using the Threat Desk app or website, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the service. You must be at least 13 years old.
Information, not advice
Threat Desk collects security news and vulnerability data from public sources and summarises it. Summaries, severity tags and suggested actions are produced partly by AI. They can be incomplete, out of date or wrong. They are for information only, and are not professional security, legal or other advice. Always check the original source and your own environment before acting. You're responsible for the decisions you make.
Other people's content
Articles, headlines and images belong to their publishers, and event details belong to their organisers. We show short summaries with the source named, and link to the original. Event dates, venues and registration can change, so confirm them with the organiser before you travel or pay. If you own content shown in Threat Desk and want it changed or removed, email support@threatdesk.app.
