Corey Birnstengel

Corey Birnstengel creates in-depth security content for Security.org that helps our audience understand how well today’s home and digital security products actually work. He regularly works side-by-side with our team’s subject-matter experts to evaluate everything from security cameras and security systems to VPNs, antivirus tools, and password managers. Corey combines storytelling with hands-on evaluation to create clear and useful video guides that help our readers pick the right security products for their needs.

A major part of Corey’s role involves putting products through practical, real-world tests. He looks closely at setup, ease of use, feature reliability, and day-to-day performance to capture how these tools behave outside of controlled environments. Whether he’s checking a camera’s night vision, running VPN app testings, or exploring antivirus malware detection, Corey ensures that every review is grounded in authentic, first-hand experience.

Corey’s work is showcased on the Security.org YouTube channel, where has produced and filmed over 500 reviews, tutorials, and hands-on demonstrations. His approachable explanations and real-world testing scenarios have helped the channel grow to more than 70,000 subscribers and over 6 million views. Through every video, Corey aims to make security technology more transparent and accessible, giving people confidence to choose tools they need to protect their homes and digital lives.
