If there's anything we're super proud of, it's that we're like... pretty chill. We like to think we're the kind of company you'd grab a beer and talk about The Real Housewives with. Of course, there's one notable thing we'll be forever un-chill about: data security. In fact, we're 𝘴𝘰 uptight we just got re-certified as SOC 2 Type II compliant. 😎 And of course, super serious security requires super serious work— we have a couple friends who make this un-chillest of journeys way, way easier: Prescient Security and Assurance, a leader in security and compliance attestation for B2B SAAS companies worldwide, performed our audit, and Vanta provides us with a clean and simple tool to keep our audits simple and security practices scalable.

🎙️ Yesterday, I had the privilege of presenting at the Carahsoft Webinar on Federal Software Security Compliance in alignment with Executive Order 14028. 🚀 It was a great opportunity to discuss software security compliance as it relates to Software Supply Chain Security. We explored insights and actionable steps to meeting compliance with EO14028 for the entire landscape including Federal Agencies (Software Consumers), Software Producers, and Federal Contractors. 📽️ If you missed the live session, you can watch the presentation at the following link: https://lnkd.in/eGY3wGD3 🔍 Topics covered include: 1) Federal software security regulations, standards and guidelines. 2) Implementing measures to meet EO14028 requirements. 3) Best practices for ensuring compliance and how to manage evidence for independently verifiable attestations. I'm grateful for the opportunity. A huge thanks to Carahsoft for hosting the webinar! Let's continue the conversation on federal software security compliance.

There is Security Marketing and Sales, and then there is just dumb. (Sorry, I mean ill-advised) Today, I got an email from a security company. GASP! I know, you didn't expect that to happen, did ya? The TLDR of the email was that they wanted me to download a *.XLS (Excel file) to get all the details for their product and sales pitch. This way, I could "see the data firsthand." (Everyone knows data in a XLS is always accurate and true, right?) This terrible email made me consider who I would "trust" to send a *.XLS file, hoping I'd just open it. That list of people is VERY short. Honestly, even if it were one of those folks, while I trust em implicitly, I wouldn't put a single one of them above "testing" my trust. If for no other reason than to give me a rash of crap.... (yeah, we do that) So, sandbox it is.... The moral of the story is simply this. HEY, security companies, don't be stupid. Don't ask security professionals to "Trust" you. If you want us to look at something, send it in an appropriate format. Make it easy for us to see. While none of us mind being cautious, it's a real PITA for marketing materials we didn't ask for in the first place. Just saying.... </dave> PS- Updated the post because I screwed it up. I mention CSV and was corrected. I meant Excel file (which changes things a bit). #cybersecurity #informationsecurity #sandbox #malwareprotection
