The modern web browser is the single most commonly used application by enterprises worldwide. Its power, simplicity, and usability makes it an essential tool at work. And yet, the browser is not an enterprise application. It lacks the fundamental controls enterprises require to ensure proper security, visibility, and governance over critical apps and data. As a result, we surround the browser with a massive security ecosystem in an attempt to manage the intersection between users, web applications, and the underlying data. In the process, our technology stack becomes complex, expensive, and fragile to maintain, while end users are left with a frustrating experience. All because the consumer browser was not designed with enterprise needs in mind. The question is: What if there was a browser designed exclusively for the enterprise?

Hear from Karim Toubba, CEO of LastPass, on LastPass' journey to passwordless, the importance of a passwordless world and why authentication is becoming more complex and facilitating the ease of authentication for users at work and at home.

Securing your Browser & The Journey to Password[less] - Karim Toubba, Mike Fey - BSW #316

Career Notes

Mike Fey, CEO and co-founder of Island.io, joins to share his story, falling in love with technology and being fascinated by it at a young age. Mike quickly started working for companies where he grew in his role, becoming CTO of McAfee and then GM of the Enterprise business, stepping out to then become president and COO of Blue Coat, which was eventually acquired by Symantec, eventually wanting to get into his own business. He shares that being a small business owner is a lot of hard work and very tiring at times, he says "especially in a startup, the highs are very high and the lows are very low." Mike also mentions how easy it is to get knocked down when being in charge of your own business, but that teamwork is what helps to bring him back up. Mike says he wants to eventually help change the world and hopefully his legacy will help him to do that some day. We thank Mike for sharing his story with us.
