This week on HACKERverse®TV, we hosted a lively, thought-provoking conversation with Kelly and Sarah, the dynamic duo behind Unboring, a creative marketing agency with a mission to shake up the way cybersecurity brands present themselves.
Unboring was born from a shared frustration: cybersecurity marketing had become predictable, saturated with cliché imagery like hoodies and padlocks, and disconnected from the real excitement of the tech itself. Kelly, with her background in channel and distribution, and Sarah, with experience taking products to market, decided to build something different. Their goal? Make cybersecurity accessible, engaging, and, above all, memorable.
They work as a plug-and-play marketing department for companies in rapid growth, helping bridge the gap between technical excellence and compelling storytelling. With nearly 30 consultants from diverse industries, not just cyber, they’re able to inject fresh ideas, push creative boundaries, and tailor marketing teams to specific needs.
A big theme of our discussion was the power of simplicity. Kelly and Sarah stressed that even the most technical products need to be explained in a way that anyone can understand. They also emphasized the importance of brand authenticity, owning your unique voice rather than trying to copy the latest “cool” vendor in the market.
We talked about leadership, too. The founders agreed that forward-thinking leaders are increasingly willing to throw out the old playbook, embracing bold, disruptive marketing approaches that go beyond jargon. And while they acknowledge that not every brand will resonate with everyone, they firmly believe that originality attracts the right audience.
From drawing inspiration outside the industry to building campaigns people actually talk about, Unboring is proving that cybersecurity marketing doesn’t have to be, well… boring.
