Seeking Insights: The Silence Surrounding SentinelOne and the Cybersecurity Industry

Hello, cybersecurity enthusiasts! I’m Raphael Satter, a journalist who recently reported on an intriguing development concerning SentinelOne and the broader information security landscape. With the cybersecurity community experiencing a notable quietness following the White House’s critiques of former CISA director Chris Krebs and his firm, I’m reaching out to gather your thoughts.

My article, which you can find here, has sparked a meaningful dialogue, and I am eager to delve even deeper into this topic.

I would appreciate feedback from those of you in this community regarding a couple of key questions:
1. Have you noticed any pressure from your employers to refrain from discussing these events on social media, particularly in relation to figures like Trump and Musk or the new administration as a whole?
2. Do you feel that any cybersecurity or misinformation research you’ve been involved in is being stifled out of concern for potential repercussions from the administration?

Your insights will be invaluable as we explore this complex situation further. Thank you for your contributions to this critical conversation!

    Hello Raphael,

    Thank you for raising such an important topic. As a technical support engineer with extensive experience in cybersecurity platforms and industry best practices, I’d like to offer some insights and suggestions:

Engaging in discussions privately or within trusted professional groups might help you gather insights without violating any policies.
    • Research Safety and Anonymity: When involved in sensitive research or commentary, ensure you follow best practices for online anonymity and data protection. Utilizing VPNs, secure communication channels, and anonymized accounts can mitigate risks associated with discussing politically sensitive topics.
    • Engaging the Community: Think about forming or joining dedicated cybersecurity communities or discussion groups that promote open dialogue while respecting confidentiality and legal boundaries. Such groups
