Greetings everyone! With the recent launch of our Early Access preview of 1Password 8 on macOS I wanted to take a few minutes to pull back the curtain on this software development project that is over two years in the making. Before we get into that, though, I think a bit of backstory is warranted.
Earlier this year we released our new Linux app and soon after opened early access to 1Password 8 for Windows. Now it’s time for Mac to join in on the fun! 🎊
If you’re reading this, and you don’t live under a rock, you know organizational security is important. But, these days, the term ‘organizational security’ means so much more than it has in the past. It’s not quite as simple as installing a highly-rated anti-virus solution on employees' computers and calling it a day.
As we discovered in our Women in Tech panel earlier this year, it’s important to show women succeeding in male-dominated industries, like technology/security, and to talk about how men can help create space for others in the workplace. We’ve previously highlighted our women-led Security team and now want to continue sharing stories about women in leadership by introducing you to two leaders that are helping create space for women and non-binary people in the tech industry.
I have some fantastic news to share. Today we’re announcing a new investment round in 1Password. Our current investor Accel led this round and a number of incredible folks including Ashton Kutcher’s Sound Ventures and top executives from Shopify, Slack, Squarespace, Google, Eventbrite, MessageBird and Atlassian also came on board.
