In this interview, I had the opportunity to sit down with Dirk Morris, Co-Founder & CTO of Untangle. Untangle provides an open source, integrated network gateway solution for small businesses, which includes spam and spyware blocking, web filtering, anti-virus protection, firewall, VPN, and numerous other features. Untangle integrates all of these existing open source network gateway applications into a single application, which can be run on a single server, with a simple user interface. Dirk shares about the tremendous opportunities Untangle has had to reach small businesses, largely due to the fact that their entire product offering is free and open source. He also shares about his personal background and career path, which started on the engineering side, but quickly led him to exciting entrepreneurial opportunities. He also gives some great advice for aspiring entrepreneurs, so be sure to check it out!
