Lucas Mingarro, Co-Founder & CEO of Easytech Green, filled us in on an exciting new project with one of the only two liberal arts colleges in Argentina, Universidad de San Andrés.

Those pressures often push in different, sometimes directly opposing directions. That's why for the remainder of the 2020s, those working on the figurative bleeding edge of website operations will resolve seemingly contradictory needs to make their tools:
Table-stakes security often means a checklist to get the security team off the back of the web team. This approach is weak from every perspective: a frustrating web and security collaboration process, vulnerability to excessive spending with security vendors and loose credential hygiene.
