"Vincenzo Iozzo, a renowned hacker linked to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, is no longer listed on the website of Black Hat, one of the largest cybersecurity conferences in the world, nor on the Japanese security conference Code Blue. As of Thursday, Iozzo does not appear on the official review board pages of Black Hat or Code Blue. He was still listed on both pages as of last week."
"In a statement shared with TechCrunch through a spokesperson, Iozzo said he told Black Hat that he "will not willingly resign" and welcomed "a full investigation." Spokespeople for Black Hat did not respond to requests for comment. Iozzo, currently the founder and chief executive of cybersecurity startup SlashID, has had a long career in the industry. Iozzo authored one of the first manuals for hackers researching Apple's mobile software,"
"Iozzo's name appears in more than 2,300 documents, some of which contain several emails, released on January 30 as part of the Department of Justice's legally required effort to publish materials from its investigation into the late financier and sex trafficker. Iozzo's interactions with Epstein span from October 2014 until December 2018. In late 2018, the Miami Herald published news stories detailing allegations that Epstein abused more than 60 women, some of them teenage girls."
Vincenzo Iozzo was removed from the official review board pages of Black Hat and Code Blue after previously being listed on both. He said he told Black Hat he "will not willingly resign" and welcomed a full investigation; Black Hat spokespeople did not respond to requests for comment. Iozzo is founder and CEO of SlashID and previously founded IperLane, which was acquired by CrowdStrike, where he served as a senior director. His name appears in more than 2,300 Department of Justice–released documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. His interactions with Epstein span October 2014 to December 2018, and he sought a meeting at Epstein’s New York townhouse after late 2018 reporting alleging abuse.
