RELEASE:
Dear HackForums community, I am please to release the very first edition of the Authenticate Magazine by Security or as we call it "Auth".
Authenticate is a small magazine reviewing recent news linked to computer security and more.
This has been an ongoing project for just over three weeks created by Assass@in and myself, written by the Redaction Team of the security group.
The Redaction team consists of:

AsSaSs@iN Malware Report & Windows Security

The Worker Leader & Magazine Layout Designer

☃BowmanBot☃ International Security

Kuudere Coders Report

Thomas Shelby Crypto Currency Reporter

Aerodactyl Editor & Grammar Nazi

I'd like to thank all the people that have helped us made Auth Mag a reality, also a special thanks to Divined and Sigma who have always been supportive of the project.
Of course thanks to the incredible team for respecting deadlines, which I think, is a remarkable feat in a group today. 
The magazine was designed in Adobe InDesign & Photoshop and is hosted on mixtape.mo.

This looks nice. Will update this after reading.
Really nice initiative by the way  👍

Update:
I took some time to read it and find issues related to this security magazine. It's kinda ok for first edition but you guys need to become more professional because right now it looks like a job done in hurry.

Some tips that you can consider.

1.Please avoid 2 page layout, it looks messy on mobile. specially with PDF version. (Try to make epub available as well)

2. Please avoid using random images or copy pasted logos (for example check last page)

3. Please don't use random background colors.

4. Please don't use random places for Header ( page 14,15)  I mean come on make a professional layout and stick with it. @ The Worker don't do all work yourself bro, get a designer in your team so he can make custom graphics and make this magazine unique.

5. Consider making a website and a option to subscribe. I'm pretty sure those who are not on HF would like to read it and will prefer to get updates whenever next issue comes out.

6. More content is required.

7. Fill the blank spaces.. get some adverts from HF marketplace, even if you have to do it for free for few edition's.

Let me know if you need some help.
Nice work everyone! I am really happy with how this turned out.

I particularly liked the crypto report written by Thomas

It feels great to be a part of this. Thanks to everyone who participated and thanks to all the readers.

Just read a few articles from the magazine and I'm very impressed! You're on top of the latest developments and the content is great!
I'm looking forward to more editions.

Skimmed through it for now because I'm about to hit the bed, but I'm definitely gonna read it tomorrow.

Good job for the very first edition of the very first HF magazine.
Downlaoded and starting to read it now:

First it looks very good, professional also the writing itself is easy to understand while still technical. The article on process doppleganger is right on and quite relevant, also dissection of the attack is right on also excellent thing with adding to the unpacke (PackerAttacker) and extending to it. Usually I tend to start out in linux when dealing with windows malware just to see whats going on then I move on to a VM . Good stuff I really like reading it, you guys keep up the good work well done.
Such a shame that you are not hosting the content on the forum. It seems like a HF community project but it can never get true support from the forum (in the form of a subforum etc.) if you are hosting it off-site. Shame, really. Such a great SEO booster it could be.

We'd love to host it on-site, maybe Omni can come up with something when Authenticate becomes bigger.
Ill be honest, I'm not one for reading magazines and doubt I ever will be. I opened it up anyway just to give it a glance.
From a presentation perspective, it looks great. Everything is laid out nicely, easy to tell when one section ends and another begins.
10/10 for layout/design, keep it up

Thank you for your review. Would there be any topic that you would like us to add in order to make you interested in reading?

I'm glad everyone likes it so far. If anyone has any ideas on how to make it better, or what they want to see in the next one; feel free to PM me.
