Secret Server on the Treo 700
Friday, April 18, 2008 6:47 PM
Secret Server has supported a "Mobile Edition" for over a year now but it is always tricky making sure that it works correctly on all devices. Our approach was to bake mobile support into the base product (ASP.NET based) so it simply scales down to the capability of the device.  That sounds simple but unfortunately it depends on making sure that...

A sign that you are no longer a startup.
Thursday, April 10, 2008 11:20 PM
Ok, so it is a really bad pun.  It is tough writing blog post titles sometimes. :) Anyway, we finally got a beautiful metallic official sign for our office after inhabiting our office space for almost two years.  (Now if we could just do something about that door!).      In our first office suite in Vienna (VA) we had a good excuse for...

When you apply for a job, read the job posting!
Monday, April 07, 2008 10:48 PM

We are currently hiring for three positions: Agile .NET Developer Agile .NET Developer Internship Graphics Designer All three involve *doing* something in order to be considered for the position - for the developer positions it requires completing...

Secret Server at FOSE 2008
Thursday, April 03, 2008 9:59 PM
We took the Secret Server booth to the FOSE 2008 Conference this week.  FOSE is the largest IT event for US Government.  It wasn't really a very long trip for us ... about 12 blocks east from our offices in Dupont Circle in Washington DC to the DC Convention Center. :) This was a very different conference for us since the audience varied widely in their...

Learning from your Burn Down chart
Tuesday, March 18, 2008 12:36 AM
The chart to the left represents the Burn Down chart for the Secret Server 4.1 release which shipped on March 14th 2008.  We have always shipped Secret Server on the published date (or in the early hours of morning the next day!) but this release pushed things a little too close for our liking.  What was the problem?  Did we take on too much? ...

What makes some code confusing?
Saturday, February 23, 2008 12:49 AM
Developers look at code for hour upon hour every day.  After some years of doing this, you can just look at something and almost intuitively understand what it is doing - assuming that some effort has been made by the developers to keep the code clear and understandable.  But every now and then, you find a doozy . I came across this one while working... Read More...

Secret Server 4.0 has shipped!
Saturday, December 22, 2007 10:40 AM
We were hoping to ship one day early but a few delays in getting some updated artwork and some of the upgrade documentation caused us to ship yesterday on the scheduled day.  Secret Server has never missed a launch date since first being released in November 2005 - this is something we attribute to Test Driven Development, Pair Programming and an agile planning...
