SentinelOne Bypassed. Again. The Cybersecurity Industry Must Wake Up.
Updated on May 7, 2025, by Xcitium
We’re here again. Another major vendor bypassed. This time? SentinelOne.
A new exploit has exposed a glaring truth: traditional EDRs — even those hyped as “next-gen” — are failing. Malware walked right past SentinelOne’s detection mechanisms. No red flags. No alerts. Just blind faith in flawed assumptions.
Let me say this as clearly as I can:
Detection is not protection.
❌ EDRs Are Fundamentally Broken
The detect-then-respond model is a relic. It assumes two dangerous things:
- That you can always detect the bad guys.
- That you’ll detect them before damage is done.
Both are false.
The attacker doesn’t need weeks to bypass you — seconds are enough. And if your EDR “didn’t see it,” then it didn’t stop it. Full stop.
SentinelOne didn’t see it. Just like many before them. Just like many will after.
So ask yourself: If your security is built on detection, what happens when detection fails?
🛡️ ZeroDwell Technology: The Real Fix
At Xcitium, we took a different path. We built a platform that doesn’t care whether a file is known or unknown. It simply can’t run in your system until it’s verified.
That’s the power of our ZeroDwell™ Technology.
- No assumptions.
- No delay.
- No damage.
We isolate unknowns before they execute. No need to “detect” first. No race against malware. No dwell time.
This isn’t theory. It’s how we’ve protected over 500,000,000 endpoints across the globe.
💡 For Security Leaders Still Betting on Detection
You’re being sold a lie: that better detection will solve the problem.
It won’t.
The bad guys have already adapted. They’re building malware that won’t be detected. That’s the game now. If your stack is still relying on EDRs like SentinelOne or CrowdStrike to “catch the threat,” you’re already behind.
And if your vendor isn’t offering true containment-first protection, they’re playing roulette with your infrastructure.
🧠 It’s Time for Real Accountability
Want to know if your vendor can truly stop threats? Ask them this:
“What happens in the milliseconds before you detect a file is malicious?”
If they don’t have containment at runtime, then what they really have is hope. And hope is not a cybersecurity strategy.

🚀 The Future Is Containment-First
Detection-based vendors have had 20 years to get it right. They’ve failed. It’s time for a new era — one built on prevention, not reaction.
That’s what Xcitium is.
Not just a vendor. Not just another platform.
A movement. A mission. A better model for cybersecurity.
Because every time a breach like this hits the headlines, it’s not just a failure of tools — it’s a failure of thinking.
