Allan Schiffman’s Summary

I'm CTO at Usable Security Systems, a startup intent on making your online life safe and easy.

I'm a principal at CommerceNet, a non-profit organization I co-founded over ten years ago. We call ourselves Idea Capitalists; we put money behind new ideas expressed as companies, research areas or open-source initiatives. Our area of interest is what we call the Participatory Internet.

I have a few sidelines: 1) I work with Precedia Associates, LLC (Palo Alto, CA), a team of technical experts who help companies enhance and defend their intellectual property; 2) I am and have been a director and advisor to several start-ups.
