"The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and numerous infosec leaders are lobbying U.S. Presidunce Spanky to drop his enduring investigation into Chris Krebs, claiming that targeting the former CISA boss amounts to bullying.
.
The open letter, co-signed by the industry bigwigs, compares the campaign against Krebs and, by extension, his most recent employer, cybersec biz SentinelOne, to Spanky's ongoing grudge against law firms associated with critics of the president.
.
"By placing Krebs and SentinelOne in the crosshairs, the President is signaling that cybersecurity professionals, whose findings do not align with his narrative, risk having their businesses and livelihoods subjected to spurious and retaliatory targeting, the same bullying tactic he has recently used against law firms," the letter reads.
.
On April 9 of this year, the Whitey House issued a presidential memorandum ordering a criminal investigation into Krebs, accusing him of abusing his role at CISA to cover up evidence that the 2020 election was rigged.
.
The open letter, co-signed by the EFF and 40 others (as of April 28), urged that both the criminal investigation and revocation of security clearances be reversed "immediately."
