James Sinclair tells startup founders to build security, trust, and compliance into the company from day one, not later. He argues this foundation compounds as you scale, and founders have a duty to protect user data.

Chapters

So many startup founders think security trust and compliance is a feature, something they don't need to think about now because it's not a priority. It's something they can fix later down the line. It's just operational technical debt. It's just something that isn't a priority because it doesn't directly, you know, align to the next milestone or whatever that means. I'm here to tell you you're wrong. Security, trust, compliance are foundational pillars of your organization. If you start your company as one that has a focus and understanding, talks about how you are going to be a secure, trustworthy and compliant organization from day one, that will compound as you scale. If you don't, that will also compound as you scale. You are the custodian of your users and their data and their experience. You have an obligation, a duty, a moral obligation to be a secure first organization and to understand what that means. Ignorance is not an excuse. Good luck.
