Black Hat Logo
An internationally recognized cybersecurity event series

Starting as fans, attendees, trainees, and later evolving to… speakers, trainers, and authors… We've been making the annual hacker pilgrimage to Las Vegas for Black Hat and Defcon for nearly two decades. It's a genuinely exciting time. Reunite with friends and colleagues from all over the world, some you may see only once a year.

Participate in a CTF contest. Enjoy all the fruits humanity has to offer in a decadent town. Catch the greatest research of the year… most save their best for Blackhat. Spend the night up hacking with a colleague. Absorb a deluge of marketing and swag. Indulge in endless choices of back-to-back corporate sponsored gatherings... the list goes on and the options iterate annually.

The year-over-year growth has been astounding. Most evident in the lunchroom during the briefings. The industry has exploded in size and continues to grow at bullish rates.

If you're curious to hear what we've been up to, schedule some time to chat. Coffee, cocktails, or a sit-down briefing... we look forward to catching up with everyone.

We're proud to announce that we're hosting a gathering this year in conjunction with some of our partners:

Prevent data leakage, discover advanced breaches, hunt for unseen threats.

Founded in 2013 by a well-versed team hailing from both the public and private sectors. Our platform is purpose-built by SOC analysts for SOC analysts and network defenders. With capabilities in attack prevention, breach detection, threat hunting, data leakage discovery, and more. We've automated much of the typically mundane tasks of the SOC analyst. Resulting in analyst level scrutiny at multi-gigabit speeds, all the while reducing frustration, and in-turn, allowing precious human time to be spent where it matters.

Turnkey Appliances

InQuest turnkey appliances offer competitive pricing and are designed for throughput rates ranging from 100Mb to 40Gb. Our compact 1U chassis houses the entire fleet, excelling in content analysis and data capture. The patented Deep File Inspection (DFI™) engine unravels nested malware at high speeds.

Threat Intelligence

Our solutions are empowered by regularly updated threat intelligence from InQuest Labs. We work with real-world networks, incorporating influences from actual attacks to publish threat hunting signatures and intelligence. Our intel is 80% self-sourced, providing YARA compatible signatures and 50 additional contextual variables.

Integrated Cloud Email Security (ICES)

Leveraging our patented Deep File Inspection (DFI), our Integrated Cloud Email Security (ICES) solution delivers unmatched scrutiny to prevent various email threats such as BEC, malware, phishing, ransomware, spam, and scams from reaching your users.

Play Nice with Others

We believe in the power of a blended approach and integrate with complementary solutions. InQuest captures and inspects file artifacts from data-at-rest, data-in-motion, and data-in-use. This enables parallel feeding to multiple integration points, enhancing detection and prevention effectiveness.

In Conclusion

InQuest integrations are active, involving data exchange with complementary vendors. Our additional layer of logic combines results with our heuristics, alerts, reputation information, and machine learning predictions. The outcome is a single, digestible threat score with a detailed threat receipt, and this is just the beginning. If you're curious to hear more, schedule time to connect with the founders directly.
