You don't need your company name on the side of a race car. You don't need an army of sales folks getting paid 3x what your engineers are. You don't need to spend half a million on a conference booth. Your security tool just needs to be good and help people at a reasonable price.
@chrissanders88 unfortunately that's not true
@noplasticshower Bless your heart
@chrissanders88 aww are you from the south like me?

@chrissanders88 I was one of the guys who invented static analysis for security (for darpa) and licensed it to kleiner to create fortify which was ultimately sold to HP. So I am not disagreeing with you without data.

The idea that you can simply build better security tech and massive global tech adoption will happen is just wrong.

I don't like marketing bullshit either. But it is an absolute necessity to grow past...oh, say $100M.

@chrissanders88 I would, I fear, settle for either proposition being largely true for commercial security tools at this point. Good? XOR Reasonably priced ? seems like a big improvement to the market, some few brilliant exceptions aside.
