Sponsor: Kolide–Slack Powered Device Security for MacAdmins ↦

Kolide is a SaaS app that sends employees important, timely, and relevant security recommendations concerning their Mac, Windows, and Linux devices, right inside Slack.

At Kolide, we think end-users are the most significant untapped resources for IT admins and are the key to solving the most challenging to fix security issues.

For example, Kolide can:

1. Instruct developers to set passphrases on the unencrypted SSH keys littered throughout their devices.

2. Find plain-text two-factor backup codes and teach end-users how to store them securely.

3. Convince employees to uninstall evil (yet allowed) browser extensions that sell their browser history to marketing companies

These are just several of the dozens of checks Kolide offers out of the box.

Kolide is perfect for organizations that want to move beyond a traditional lock-down model and move to one where employees are educated about security and device management while fixing nuanced problems. We call this approach Honest Security.

Sounds too good to be true? It’s not. You just need to give it a try.

You can try Kolide on an unlimited number of devices with all its features for free and without a credit card for 14 days.
