“ End-to-end encryption, multifactor authentication, and code and database reviews should be paramount when starting. If you can implement those three factors into a product or service from the ground up, you’ll usually have a strong foundation for more refined security later. Products that start out less secure typically implement security haphazardly later. It’s a […]
“ The old saying “measure twice, cut once” applies so heavily to tech projects. I’ve learned over and over that if the survey, planning and pilots don’t go well, you need to do them over again. If the customer thinks the timing and costs are going to be problems, wait until they see what comes […]
“ Establishing risk management processes is often overlooked. Having a workflow everyone—including members of the C-suite—is trained on helps limit the complexities of ransomware attacks. When you’re attacked, it’s all about time, limitation and response. Too often, the process takes too long, with not enough limits and either an overreaction or underreaction to the situation. […]

Then, someone in tech can marry their issue with a solution and either remedy the issue completely or offer up something […]
“ If I were a student with a tech career in my sights, I would focus on sales empowerment (via CRM systems) or data processing (any kind of data science). Nothing will be more important for businesses in the upcoming decade as the need to integrate Salesforce into everything. Along with that will come the […]

“ YouTube is one of my greatest resources. It is truly the wealth of human knowledge, in full-motion videos that are searchable and easily consumed. Nothing compares to real people sharing wisdom and opinions for all to see and comment on. It’s what we should rely on as the default means of record-keeping. Nothing else compares. […]
“ When looking at a product, you should always be designing for set functionality, like an appliance. When the environment is static, it’s far easier to have strong security. Open-ended functionality, open architecture or long lists of variables end up crippling security protocols and create a breeding ground for hacks and potential security breaches. It’s […]
“ Learning to code is like learning a language. It’s necessary in some situations, and handy from time to time. Learning logic is more like learning to communicate. It’s not the same as coding. Far too many technologists fail to understand how computers and code work, which is far more fundamental than the language itself. […]
