Most cybersecurity products don’t fail because of bad tech.
They fail because they don’t solve a real business problem.
In this episode of The Keyboard Samurai, host Wil sits down with Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at @ThreatLocker to break down what it actually takes to build security products that matter.
We cover:
Why cybersecurity is still an unsolved problem
The difference between solving symptoms vs fixing root causes
Why complex threats often need simple controls, not more analytics
How “block everything, allow by exception” changes security outcomes
Why UX and product usability decide whether security tools succeed
How customer advisory boards shape better products
Why attackers no longer need endpoint access to cause damage
This conversation is a must-listen for:Founders, product leaders, CISOs, MSPs, and anyone building or buying security products.
