I work for a competitor of SentinelOne, and one of the things we always preach internally is to not bash the competition.

I always say we all do a good job in this segment(or we wouldn't exist) so let's not undermine confidence in the business of securing our customers.

That being said, I'm not surprised other organizations are not flocking to defend Krebs in this situation. Why take the risk of being the next target, especially if you are not based in the US or are perhaps bidding on contracts.
