The Silence in Cybersecurity: Seeking Insights from Industry Professionals
Hello, cybersecurity enthusiasts! I’m Raphael Satter, one of the journalists behind the recent piece highlighting a significant shift in the information security landscape regarding SentinelOne and the reactions to the White House’s criticisms of former CISA chief Chris Krebs and his company. The story, which you can read here, has ignited essential conversations about transparency and accountability in our field.
As I delve deeper into this complex situation, I’m reaching out to solicit your insights and experiences. I’d particularly like to hear from industry professionals regarding a couple of key points:
-
Have you and your colleagues been advised to remain silent on social media regarding SentinelOne, the actions of figures like Trump and Musk, or the broader implications of the current administration’s stance on cybersecurity?
-
Do you feel that any research on disinformation or cybersecurity initiatives you are involved in is being stifled due to concerns about potential repercussions from the administration?
Your experiences could provide invaluable context to this ongoing discussion and help shed light on the extent of the industry’s response—or lack thereof—in this challenging environment. Thank you for your contributions to this important topic.
