I am Eric Geller,
a cybersecurity
journalist in
Washington, D.C.

I'm a freelance cybersecurity journalist covering all things digital security. I previously reported on cybersecurity for The Messenger, Politico, and The Daily Dot.

Throughout my career, I've reported on how policymakers are approaching cybersecurity challenges and how cyber issues affect our everyday lives. I've covered fights over the encryption in our phones and messaging apps; struggles to keep hackers out of critical infrastructure like hospitals and election systems; and plenty of major data breaches, global malware outbreaks, and other high-profile cyber incidents.

If you want to get in touch with me, you can email me at eric@ericjgeller.com (PGP key available here).

Note to publicists: Do not email or call me. I don’t care about your client’s new product or service. I don’t want a comment from your client’s CEO about the day’s news. I don’t want to interview your client’s CEO.

I'm on X, Bluesky, Threads, and Mastodon.
