IMO this is a pretty narrow definition of enterprise-ready, which is often actually more of a focus on being able to map a large organisations process into your application, and also how it scales with the number of users (ie your app is made for 1000 people to use rather than 10, and scales from a process/organisational perspective not just a technical perspective). Small organisations are more willing to change pro…
Having had to rip out Auth0 and similar products and replace them with in-house OAuth/SSO solutions that actually work and can be fully customized at several B2B SaaS companies, I find this claim very dubious.
Also, many enterprise clients will want SOC-2, in which case you can't really ducktape things together. Everything has to be designed from the ground up with enterprise and security in mind.
This has been my experience, enterprises are routinely one-upping their security requirements. It used to be Shared Controls Audits, now its SOC2 Type 2, tomorrow it will be HiTrust or combinations of SOC2 and ISO controls. This has been getting more arduous every year for the last 10 years, I don't see it reversing anytime soon. As a startup, you will be out of business by the time you meet their requirements, or co…
Isn't this sort of necessary, given the miniature wave of ransomware/cybercrime that we've been going through? We've been saying that companies need to improve their security - isn't this it? ------------------------------------ This is somewhat tangential, but a really good "emotional transfer moment": This is exactly how some people feel about government regulation - this emotion, right here - that it's arduous, st…
I think its similar to running a bank, if you cannot protect the value (money) then you are not really a good bank. The problem is people have been pretending they are not a bank and trying to skirt protecting their customers for the better part of 20 years, especially in SaaS.

It's not a product, just a list of things to consider. (not affiliated, saw it recently, and thought it was cool).
I was reading an article by the other day about a person who had a disability that caused them to be highly disturbed by meaningless animations on the web. I might have voted it up but those stupid memes drag this article down to a low level.
It is a bad trend. Memes are one thing... Animated ones are a way of saying "Look at me, not the content".
EDIT for extra observation: I blocked them in uBlock, which was nice. However, Reader mode in Firefox has them! And you can't block element in reader mode. Perhaps "disable animated GIFs" needs to be a checkbox for that feature in Firefox.

I saw an article on some Cosmo-esque sex talk site which did the same thing. It was a listicle with stupid GIFs throughout. The paragraphs were about 8 words wide on my screen, and each GIF was as if they just typed the list item title into a Giphy search. It is a bad trend. Memes are one thing...

I was a bit disappointed to see yet another authentication service advertised. I'm still looking for a reasonable open source (or SaaS) framework for managing workflow / action assignment & tracking. It seems like everyone who builds one immediately tries to sell it with a front end rather than a component.
Seems like these enterprise-in-a-box services are taking off and I like the role that they play in the ecosystem. That said there's a lot more to it than what Boxy offers – a lot of what enterprises need is about configurability and flexibility for wildly varying use-cases, as well as general compliance. It looks like Boxy (authors of this post) are building more logging and governance features soon which I think wil…
From our side, we have started with these features since we have seen they are common pain for early-stage startups, but in terms of our vision, we are focusing on developer-first security tools. And we believe that there are many opportunities to help close the gap between compliance and security.
