Rob Allen - Building Security Products That Actually Solve Real Problems


Listen Later

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.
