Human-Centered Security In the Wild: Jordan Girman and Mike Kosak On Security and Product Team Collaboration at Lastpass
Update: 2025-04-07
Description
Imagine a world where product teams collaborate with security teams. Where product designers can shadow their security peers. A place where security team members believe communication is one of the most important skillsets they have. These are key attributes of human-centered security—the type of dynamics Jordan Girman and Mike Kosak are fostering at Lastpass.
In this episode, we talk about:
- What cross-disciplinary collaboration looks like at Lastpass (for example, a product designer is shadowing the security team).
- A set of principles for designing for usable security and privacy.
- Why intentional friction might be counterintuitive to designers but, used carefully, is critical to designing for security.
- When it comes to improving security outcomes, the words you use matter. Mike explains how the Lastpass Threat Intelligence team thinks about communicating what they learn to a variety of audiences.
- How to build a threat intelligence program within your organization--even if you have limited resources.
Jordan Girman is the VP of User Experience at Lastpass. Mike Kosak is the Senior Principal Intelligence Analyst at Lastpass. Mike references a series of articles he wrote, including “Setting Up a Threat Intelligence Program From Scratch.”
