Security is one of the areas we're most interested in, but we leave it to founders to show us the most promising sub-areas.
We don't care about technical certifications. I forget which company it was, but some large tech company found that the only negative predictor of success for its employees was technical certifications...
- parisandmilo 11y agoThank you! :) Are there any certain personalities you think excel the most in founding security startups?
- tptacek 11y agoI don't know who that was but will second it.
- burfog 11y agoWould this include companies that play offense, selling to government? If so, does it matter if they sell to many governments (as did Hacking Team and VUPEN, selling to places like Egypt and Sudan) or if they only sell in the USA to the NSA, CIA, DoD, etc.?
