About Us

The New New Internet (TNNI) seeks to stay abreast of the rapidly developing field of cybersecurity. The site looks to connect the developments in the national and international arena with informative analysis that places the disparate ideas surrounding this still nascent market in dialogue with one another. We encourage you to follow our updates, and welcome your feedback on our articles and content.

Our readers can anticipate regular, objective and timely news updates on developments in cybersecurity spanning the public and private sectors. In practice, we do not focus on specific technologies but instead cover broader policy developments, key players and cyber incidents, along with broad innovations in cybersecurity context.

The New New Internet intends to support a safer world of the Internet’s next generation. We will focus beyond the realm of the new Internet of Web 2.0 into the promise of what will be The New, New Internet.
