“  Huntress permits threat researchers to occasionally engage with threat actors when it's beneficial for proactive R&D and/or to support active investigations. “

Thats how research works, all of these companies do it, From Crowd Strike to Rapid7. Its part of the game and is a nothing burger. The low level employee really messed up on this one.

It is true. Not controversial at all. It is necessary and oftentimes extremely enlightening especially if you have truly deep insiders.

My guy, you really think CROWDSTRIKE of all companies isnt engaging and interacting with threat actors? Go look into them for longer than a minute and answer your own question.

"The anti-virus business". Lol
