About CyberMoat
CyberMoat is where security thinking meets capital allocation.
It applies the mindset of cybersecurity — threat modeling, attack surfaces, incentives, asymmetries, and failure modes — to investing and macro analysis.
Markets are systems.
Systems fail.
Narratives distort incentives.
Capital rotates.
Understanding risk precedes compounding.
Who Writes This
My name is Michał Rzepka.
For more than fifteen years, I have worked — and continue to work — in cybersecurity, primarily within banking and financial infrastructure. My work as a penetration tester focuses on identifying structural weaknesses in complex systems before they become catastrophic.
CyberMoat is a parallel intellectual project: applying the same systems-thinking framework to capital allocation.
Investing, like security engineering, is not about predicting headlines. It is about:
Evaluating incentives
Stress-testing assumptions
Identifying durable moats
Avoiding asymmetric downside

This is not a high-frequency newsletter.
I publish when there is real signal — and when it deserves proper examination.
Research Transparency
CyberMoat relies on structured financial analysis, primary filings, macro data, and professional-grade research tools. Where relevant, tools used in analysis are disclosed transparently.
Positions may be held in securities discussed. A cryptographic track record framework is used where appropriate to balance transparency with liquidity considerations.
Who This Is For
CyberMoat is written for those responsible for capital — and for those who take that responsibility seriously.
Operators.
Founders.
Family offices.
Long-term allocators.
Institutional thinkers navigating structural risk.
This is not written merely for entertainment.
It is analysis intended to inform decision-making under uncertainty.
If your mandate involves preserving, compounding, or strategically deploying capital in a world of accelerating technological and monetary change, you are in the right place.
