Wizard Entertainment, made a interview with Zachary Quinto aka. Sylar or we may say Gabriel Gray.

How was security on set for the episode where it was revealed you were the actor playing Sylar?
QUINTO: [Laughs] Did you ask how security on set was? It’s nice to think there would be security, but no. Everyone at the show I think was really relieved to know finally who was playing the character, because at that point, there were a couple of times earlier in the seasonâ€â€?in episode three or five I think, the early part of the season before I even got castâ€â€?that you had to see Sylar. So they used a number of different stunt doubles who came in and they just shot around it. They shot them from behind and you never saw a face. You’d just see them running down the hallway or something. So for the first couple of days when I showed up to work, people were like, “Wait, you’re the real guy? You’re really playing this character?” I was like, “Yeah. I really am.”
I think there was a fair amount of expectation of like, “Who is this going to be?” They set that up for the audience and I think that was also sort of built in for the cast and the crew, to a certain extent, as well. It was like, “Who is this shadowy figure who is going to emerge and try to kill us all?” But aside from that, there were no extra precautions because people weren’t aware we were shooting that stuff at that time. No one really knew. I think it was probably about, wow, maybe a month or a month a half in. Well, I started out at the beginning of October. So I was about a month into it when there started to be some rumblings about who was going to be playing this role, but there was a lot of discrepancy and no one was really exactly sure. But it worked out well, I think.

What’s it been like since it was revealed you were the actor playing Sylar? Has anyone recognized you?
QUINTO: Definitely. I’ve certainly gotten recognized in conjunction with the role and the show. It hasn’t been too invasive. It hasn’t really been fundamentally changing my experience or my life. I mean, I’ve been on shows before for which I’ve been occasionally recognized and I certainly don’t mind that, but I went to the movies the other day and I was at the ticket window and I was waiting for a friend. I turned around to scan the lobby if my friend was there yet, and there was this couple who was standing like maybe 10 feet away from me. As soon as I turned around, they both started cracking up and laughing and waving at me. I was like, “Hello.” From like 10 or 15 feet away the guy yells, “Don’t eat our brains!” I was like, “I won’t. I’m just seeing ‘Casino Royale.’”
That kind of stuff is pretty funny. It’s all very innocuous so far and I’m certainly happy to engage people who want to talk about the show, because it really does generate a lot of interest. I like that. I mean, I think it’s great to be a part of something that influences pop culture the way this show does, because I think it actually has something good to say. I think it really has something substantial at its core. So I certainly don’t mind engaging people in conversation about it.
