Unfortunately, there are a lot of bad guys out there who know the answer to that question.
This is my sixth startup in fact.
I started a venture capital firm and worked at a few larger companies as well.
I foundedCoronetthree years ago with three friends.
Then, voila, if youre ready to operate it and can do so illegally with malicious intent.
Why arent I safe if I connect via a VPN?
Unfortunately, using a VPN provides you with a false sense of security for two main reasons.
An example of this is the DarkHotel attacks, which targeted executive-level guests at luxury hotels in Asia.
What are the main elements of the Coronet platform?
For safely exposing internal services, you should still use a VPN.
You offer a few different usage plans. What are the differences between them?
How much do they cost?
We currently have two plans.
The Enterprise plan includes the full Coronet platform that I described previously.
We are currently on target for our goal of 100 million installations by the end of 2017.
How do you define your market?
Who is your specific target audience within that market?
Our target market is enterprise customers.
These customers usually have more than 10,000 employees and a large mobile workforce.
They can be located anywhere in world.
What methods do you normally use to attract and engage with new customers?
We are very active in the cyber security community.
Whom do you see as your main competitors?
How are you different and/or better?
I believe that security is done completely wrong today, because it is based on restrictions instead of enablement.
Companies think that if they send out a security memo their employees will comply.
But that is just not the reality of how employees choose to work today.
A more intelligent approach is necessary, only imposing restrictions on users when there is a genuine threat.
I believe that individuals must assume more responsibility for their actions and personal security.
What is some general advice that you would offer todays startups?
I see the world of startups changing already, but not for the better.
Investors dislike for real risk will have a strong, negative impact on the startup community.
How many employees do you have today?
Where are they located?
We currently have 35 employees.
How many hours a day do you normally work?
What do you like to do when you are not working?
I work as many hours as needed.
That means sometimes 13 hours a day and sometimes 20 hours.
I travel extensively around the world.
I currently spend about 60% of my time travelling.
I dont really have a time zone.
