Sure, don't give anything away.Don't pick names easy to guess or commonly used. Passwords are just the final threshold.

I should clarify that OneLogin doesn't focus particularly on start-ups, but that's where we are seeing this trend. 90% of our customers are not startups and have Active Directory, some of them with dozens of forests and...

I absolutely agree... However, to be devils advocate to this point (and my own article), I think this will only be the case if you have security conscious and trained folks creating the custom systems. Since they are blackboxes,...

Containing Corporate Data on Mobile Devices
If you’re still focused on securing endpoints, you’ve got your work cut out for you.
