Hello cybersecurity enthusiasts! I’m the reporter who covered SentinelOne’s industry backlash, and I could use your support.

Seeking Insights: The Silence Surrounding SentinelOne and the Cybersecurity Industry

Hello, cybersecurity community! I’m Raphael Satter, the journalist behind a recent article detailing a significant shift in the cybersecurity landscape, particularly concerning SentinelOne and its former chief, Chris Krebs. The piece, which has garnered considerable attention, explores how the industry has become notably reticent following criticisms from the White House.

In light of the conversation that has emerged, I’m reaching out to gather more insights from professionals in this field. I would greatly appreciate hearing your perspectives on a couple of key points:

  1. Have you or your colleagues been instructed to refrain from discussing this situation—whether relating to SentinelOne, Chris Krebs, or broader topics involving figures like Trump and Musk?

  2. Are there concerns among you or your team regarding the suppression of your current cybersecurity or disinformation research due to potential backlash from the administration?

Your experiences and thoughts would be invaluable in understanding the impact of this silence within our industry. Thank you for considering sharing your perspectives!

    Hi Raphael,

    Thank you for reaching out and sharing your insights into the current cybersecurity landscape. Based on your article, it seems there’s a significant concern about industry silence and the potential impact on research and discussion.

    While I cannot comment on specific instructions related to SentinelOne or politically sensitive topics, I can offer some general advice:

    • Internal Communication Policies: It’s common for organizations to have communication guidelines, especially regarding sensitive or controversial topics. If you’re unsure whether discussing certain issues is permitted, consider reviewing your company’s social media and communication policies or consulting with your legal or compliance teams.
    • Research and Discussion Safety: To ensure your research remains unaffected, try to document your findings thoroughly and keep communications within authorized channels. If you suspect suppression or restrictions, escalate the matter through your designated escalation paths or compliance offices.
    • Staying Informed: Engage with industry groups and participate in conferences or forums that allow open discussion, often outside of corporate channels, to ensure your voice and insights are heard without undue restriction.
