Today, I want to share the story of how we’ve evolved our organization over time. I hope you can learn from our success and our mistakes and get a bit of inspiration.  The Dashlane story is a series of iterative steps. As we grew, we adapted our organizational structure to meet our changing needs. The […]

Internal conversations about what, exactly, privacy means to us led to codifying and publishing our “laws” of privacy here at Dashlane.

A few months back we shared some insights about the security of our web extension and explained our approach to security on the web platform. In this article, we’d like to go one step deeper and help clarify that our web-first experience is much more than a web app, and highlight a few risk scenarios we evaluate […]

Do you brush your teeth?  Yes, this article is going to be about dental hygiene and toothbrushes…  …as a metaphor to talk about digital hygiene.  As a kid, you learn from your parents that it is important to brush your teeth twice a day, to floss and avoid eating too much candy.

Two to three times a year, we organize  hackathons at Dashlane. These are fun and creative events where teams mix up to work on small projects of their choice.   Unfortunately, fun isn’t a good enough reason to divert time and resources away from our core business goals, so hackathons need to provide some long-term value.

Our 2019 industry trends report makes six bold predictions for the digital security sector. Some are welcomed, like the spreading of GDPR-type laws outside of Europe, while others make us a bit queasy, like the thought of a terrorist attack being carried out by a criminal sitting behind a desk somewhere unknown. 2019 industry trends […]

Eighteen months ago, we decided to revolutionize our Product & Engineering organization. We moved from teams that were associated with technical platforms (iOS, Windows, web, etc.) towards “feature teams.” This was a big change for us, but it was necessary to allow us to support our growth and our business. Four months ago, Product & Engineering […]
