One big challenge that leaders have when figuring out how or where their companies can grow is that a dearth of data about future problems and opportunities. In these situations, there are three techniques that leaders can employ to develop insights: look at customers and startups for signs of change, experience new technologies rather than just read about them, and practice “associative thinking,” which means connect two seemingly disparate concepts to develop a novel idea.

DevOps is not new. Ideas to combine deployment and operations began to appear in the late 80s. It took us nearly 20 years to finally formulate the state of DevOps and begin the move towards DevOps engineers. However, we can’t stop here. While it may sound surprising, there is much more to be done than what we already did. Bringing deployments and operations together is just the first step, and we need to bring other areas together even more.

Passwords are a problem. While they remain the main way we secure applications, services, and systems, they’re increasingly vulnerable. Cloud compute makes it economical to brute-force valuable passwords, while poorly-thought-out password policies drive users to inherently risky behaviors. And while password managers make it easier to have separate complex passwords for everywhere we need them, other “security” policies block us from using those passwords.
