CyberWire Daily is a daily cybersecurity news and analysis podcast from N2K Networks, published each weekday, with interviews with experts from industry, academia and research organizations. As of October 2026 the feed carried about 96 episodes in the last 90 days, and episodes usually run about 28 minutes.
The show describes itself as the daily cybersecurity news and analysis that industry leaders depend on. It is published each weekday and also includes interviews with a wide spectrum of experts from industry, academia and research organizations.
The episode descriptions in the latest feed items show the daily format: a run of short news items per episode, such as critical PHP flaws, a GitLab patch, a Google Cloud outage affecting UK banks and AI-assisted attacks. The feed also carries Research Saturday, a weekly interview edition, which is why the episode count is higher than one per weekday. If you only want the daily briefing, look for the daily-podcast episodes in the feed; the Research Saturday editions are a longer weekly conversation with one guest.
Our take: it suits security practitioners and managers who want a short daily briefing rather than a long weekly one. Related list: best cybersecurity podcasts.
