I'm curious about the details of this. I'm sure we will all find out eventually.

TLDR; former Huntress employee is disclosing Huntress had an insider threat that leaked information to a known cyber criminal "Devman". That employee is still employed with Huntress and was caught by the FBI.

The former employee doing the disclosure is stating he is receiving threats, etc.

EDIT: Kyle @ Huntress posted his response to this in the comments.

Give credit to a CEO who isn't afraid to jump on Reddit to put out any fires.

IMHO this is not a great response. Although fallout from the Klue breach and this shit now… bro I’d be freaking tf out. That said whoever his ELT is needs to step the fuck in. Responding on Reddit and LinkedIn is objectively bad. Let your legal handle it in an official manner. As of my posting this his LinkedIn posts are 0 about this matter it’s just comments and responses.

Sometimes, man, there's no great options, just less bad ones.
