IBM withdraws from RSA Conference 2020 due to the coronavirus outbreak

RSA Conference 2020 Security Technology Summit will be held from February 24, 2020, to February 28, 2020, in San Francisco, USA.

The security summit usually attracts 50,000 security researchers and developers from around the world every year. The main content of the conference is IT and secure encryption technology.

However, recently affected by the pneumonia epidemic caused by the new coronavirus, GSMA Association, the organizer of MWC2020, has decided to cancel the meeting.

Now, the RSA Conference 2020 Security Technology Summit is also affected by the epidemic situation, but the current meeting organizer has decided that the meeting will be held as scheduled.

The organizers of the summit released an update to show that the giant IBM has informed the organizers to withdraw from the summit because of concerns about public health and health issues.

IBM is a platinum sponsor of the RSA Conference 2020 Security Technology Summit, and the withdrawal is undoubtedly a huge loss for the conference organizers.
