Security moves fast, and keeping on top of it means having the right information as soon as it’s out. After 20+ years in IT I’ve learned how much difference it makes to hear about a new vulnerability early, especially a zero day, before someone gets the chance to exploit it.
That’s what this page is for. It pulls the latest advisories, vulnerability reports and security news into one live feed, so you can spot what affects you and get your patching priorities sorted.
I work in infrastructure for a living, so I know how hard it is to keep track of everything while also keeping the lights on. I use this feed myself, and I hope it saves you some time too.

Everything on this page is also available as JSON, so you can pull it into a dashboard, a script or a chat bot. It’s free, read-only and needs no key.
curl -s https://jackwent.co.uk/api/feeds | jq '.items[:5]'
You get back three things:
updated: when the feed last refreshedsources: each source, whether its last fetch worked, and how many items it hasitems: every headline, newest first, each with asource(zdi,ncsc,f5,netsec,sysadminorhn), atitle, alinkand adate
The feed refreshes every 15 minutes, so there’s no point polling more often than that. The full description is in the OpenAPI spec, and the service health check is at /healthz.
If there’s a feed you’d like me to add, drop me a line at info@jackwent.co.uk.
Just so you know, the links in the feed take you away from jackwent.co.uk to other sites.
