Huntress CEO Denies Allegations the Firm Concealed a Security Breach
Huntress CEO Kyle Hanslovan went on Reddit to deny allegations that the cybersecurity firm concealed a security breach and an insider leak of US law enforcement communications to a threat actor. A former security analyst posted a detailed account Thursday claiming that Huntress prioritized the defense of its upcoming initial public offering over disclosing a security incident. The post alleged that an active employee passed FBI communications to a threat actor known as Devman, and warned that the insider would soon publish evidence including recorded calls and internal escalations.
The allegations escalate scrutiny over Huntress, which provides endpoint detection and response platforms to businesses, following claims from Icarus ransomware operators that they obtained the company's Salesforce data and are listing it on a dark web portal. Icarus' listing remains unverified. Meanwhile, cybersecurity researcher Jon DiMaggio challenged Hanslovan to publicly release evidence to counter the insider claims, emphasizing that transparency is critical for endpoint security providers.

@intcyberdigest@Jerry566f I have no idea, man. I'm just reporting what I see. @HuntressLabs might be right or wrong. Companies can't just post evidence freely (despite transparency claims), and it's easy to accuse them. So let's give them the benefit of
