Richard Ford, Chief Scientist at Forcepoint, discuss the current state of Forcepoint, and where the company plans to go in the near future. They approach security from the perspective that traditional security has failed. This is based on the idea of identifying the good from the bad with certainty. Forcepoint instead focuses on the point at which humans interact with data, and try to understand how people and data interact over networks of variable trust.
