Outage disrupts some SentinelOne services
This story was originally published on Cybersecurity Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Cybersecurity Dive newsletter. SentinelOne said Thursday that an outage had affected consoles for enterprise customers across the world. The Mountain View, Calif.-based cybersecurity vendor said in a blog post that there was no reason to believe the incident was the result of a cyberattack. Customer endpoints were not affected, SentinelOne said, but the company's managed-response services did not have visibility during the outage. The incident also delayed the company's threat data reporting. SentinelOne apologized for the outage and provided updates to customers through a support portal. In a post at 3:41 p.m. EDT, the company said it had restored access to consoles and was working to make sure all services were operational. A spokesperson said the company will post an updated review of the outage in the near future Recommended Reading BeyondTrust, Cloudflare averted Okta attacks thanks to security chops Sign in to access your portfolio

BeyondTrust recognised as leader in secrets management
BeyondTrust has been identified as an Overall Leader in the 2025 KuppingerCole Leadership Compass for Enterprise Secrets Management. The independent analyst firm KuppingerCole evaluated a total of 16 vendors in the field of secrets management, highlighting BeyondTrust's capabilities, scalability, and focus on securing both human and non-human identities at enterprise scale. The KuppingerCole report points to the increasing complexity organisations face as they adopt cloud services and pursue digital transformation initiatives. It notes the necessity for robust solutions to manage and secure cloud entitlements, emphasising that security in this evolving environment is paramount. BeyondTrust's approach to secrets management extends beyond conventional vaulting solutions. The company's Password Safe solution is designed to deliver policy-based control and visibility over credentials such as application credentials, API keys, certificates, and other machine secrets. The company has built native integrations with a range of popular platforms, including GitHub Actions, Kubernetes, Terraform, and Ansible. Such integrations are intended to streamline secret injection and lifecycle management, enabling developer-friendly workflows while maintaining security standards. "BeyondTrust's solutions are particularly suited for enterprises demanding rigorous control over privileged and non-privileged accounts across complex environments. Given its strategic enhancements and comprehensive roadmap, BeyondTrust remains a strong choice for enterprises seeking advanced identity management solutions," Martin Kuppinger, Founder and Principal Analyst at KuppingerCole, commented on BeyondTrust's positioning in the report. The report also acknowledges a shift in the sector as enterprises adopt AI-driven automation and manage more distributed workloads. This has led to a rise in so-called Agentic AI entities—software agents that operate with increasing autonomy, including initiating decisions, running processes, and interacting with data independently. According to the report, BeyondTrust is responding to these trends by developing capabilities that enforce identity lifecycle controls, ensure the principle of least privilege, and monitor for atypical behaviours across all identity types, whether human or non-human. "Secrets management has to evolve with the reality of the modern threat landscape. That means securing not just traditional users and service accounts, but also non-human and autonomous AI identities. Our solutions are built to give security teams centralised visibility and control across every identity and environment, while empowering developers and operations teams to build and scale securely," Sam Elliott, Senior Vice President of Product Management at BeyondTrust, said, outlining the company's approach to current industry challenges. BeyondTrust's secrets management offerings are part of the BeyondTrust Pathfinder Platform. The platform's scope includes Privileged Access Management, Identity Threat Detection and Response, Cloud Identity Management, Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management, and a recently released Identity Security Risk Assessment. This free assessment is designed to help organisations uncover hidden Risks to Privilege within their identity infrastructure, making vulnerabilities visible and offering practical recommendations for remediation. The KuppingerCole Leadership Compass for Enterprise Secrets Management evaluates vendors' approaches to managing and protecting secrets, considering factors such as scalability, integrations, developer experience, and strategic vision in the context of current and emerging identity security challenges.
