Seeking Your Insights: The Silence Surrounding SentinelOne

Hello, cybersecurity community! My name is Raphael Satter, and I am one of the journalists behind a recent article detailing the growing silence within the information security industry following critiques directed towards SentinelOne and its former leader, Chris Krebs, by the White House. The discussions that have emerged from this piece have been both enlightening and thought-provoking, and I’m eager to delve even deeper into the topic with your help.

In my reporting, I have observed a notable trend: many professionals within our field appear hesitant to engage openly about these matters, especially concerning SentinelOne and the broader implications of political rhetoric from figures like Trump and Musk. This leads to two specific questions I would like to pose to this community:

1. Has there been any communication from your employers advising you to refrain from discussing the current situation on social media, particularly regarding SentinelOne or the political figures involved?

2. Do you feel that any research related to cybersecurity or misinformation you are conducting is being stifled due to a reluctance to confront this administration?

Your experiences and insights are invaluable as we navigate through this intricate web of politics and cybersecurity. I invite you to share your thoughts and stories in the comments below. Let’s foster a dialogue that can illuminate the nuances of our industry during these challenging times. Thank you for your contributions!
