Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A. Inc. has announced its participation in the Black Hat cybersecurity event, Aug. 6-11 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Black Hat is an internationally recognized cybersecurity event series providing the most technical and relevant information security research. The multi-day event provides the security community with the latest cutting-edge research, developments and trends.

As a leading MSSP, Konica Minolta makes continual investments in its security offerings to help customers protect their data. Most recently in 2020, the company acquired Depth Security, rounding out its defensive offering to include offensive capabilities. The move accelerated its ability to keep clients' data safe so they can focus on maintaining profitability as they continue on their path to digital transformation.

At Black Hat, Konica Minolta will take advantage of opportunities to engage with global security experts, practitioners and business developers and showcase its portfolio of managed IT services, which include active defense security monitoring, vulnerability management, testing services and advisory emulation capabilities, and best-in-class managed security awareness training, threat landscape and vCISO services.

Through its silver sponsorship, Konica Minolta will exhibit at Booth 1085 in the Black Hat 2022 Business Hall. The company will also have a virtual booth online and participate in the "Wow Wall" digital billboard throughout the event. Additionally, Konica Minolta is partnering with Tech Target to maximize reach and deliver security content to their Black Hat 2022 Conference eGuide audience.

"As in-person conferences continue to make a comeback, it is an essential part of our overall cybersecurity strategy to leverage key industry sponsorships and networking opportunities that will strengthen our brand and contribute to lead generation," said Glenn Mathis, senior vice president of managed IT, North America, Konica Minolta. "Black Hat has all the key players in the industry attending and exhibiting, and we look forward to interacting with the cybersecurity community."
