Seeking Insights on the Cybersecurity Industry’s Response to Recent Events

Hello, fellow cyber enthusiasts! My name is Raphael Satter, and I am one of the journalists who recently covered a significant development regarding SentinelOne and the cybersecurity industry’s response to the current political climate.

In my article, published by Reuters, I explored how the cybersecurity sector has seemingly fallen silent following a wave of criticism from the White House directed at former CISA chief Chris Krebs and his firm, SentinelOne. The piece has generated considerable discussion, and I am eager to delve deeper into this pressing issue.

I’m reaching out to the community to gather insights on your experiences. Specifically, I would appreciate hearing from professionals in the field regarding a couple of key points:

1. Have your organization’s leadership advised you not to express opinions on social media concerning this situation or the broader implications involving figures like Trump and Musk?
2. Do you feel that any cybersecurity or disinformation research you’ve been involved with has been stifled due to concerns about potential repercussions from the current administration?

Your insights could provide a richer context to this ongoing conversation. Thank you for considering sharing your experiences and thoughts!
