"Ricoh's commitment to participating in the Device Penetration testing program validates the company's dedication to ensuring device security for its customers is of the utmost importance," said Jamie Bsales, Director, Solutions & Security Analysis, Keypoint Intelligence. "This initial round of testing was extensive and included both automated and manual 'hacking' attempts to gain unauthorized access to the devices and the test network.
