Chris Krebs Resigns from SentinelOne || Tech Field Day News Rundown: April 23, 2025

Chris Krebs is a well-known figure in the cybersecurity space. As the former head of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, Krebs was responsible for directing security for the US federal government starting 2018. Krebs was fired from CISA in 2020 by President Donald Trump for his stance on the 2020 election. Last week, President Trump stripped Krebs of his security clearances for this 4-year-old issue. Krebs then announced that he would be stepping down from his role at security company SentinelOne in order to prevent the company from being harmed by what appears to be a personal issue between the president of the United States and a private citizen that dared to disagree with him.
