Chris Krebs, who was previously let go as head of CISA by Donald Trump, has resigned from SentinelOne under duress from the White House. Krebs stated in his resignation that his decision stemmed from a need to direct his efforts against Trump's vindictive actions towards him and his past employers. This resignation comes on the heels of Trump revoking security clearances for Krebs and others, which raised concerns about the intimidation exerted by the government and its impact on the company's standing in cybersecurity.
Krebs stated in his email that he offered his resignation as this is his fight, not the company's, emphasizing a focus on opposing Trump's decisions.
Tensions between Trump and Krebs originated in November 2020 when Krebs was fired for refusing to endorse Trump's unsubstantiated election claims, asserting election security.
