About VASCAN

The Virginia Alliance for Secure Computing and Networking (VASCAN) strengthens information technology security programs within the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Alliance brings together Virginia higher education security practitioners who developed and maintain security programs widely emulated by other institutions and researchers who create cybersecurity instruction and research programs nationally recognized for excellence. VASCAN core comprises security professionals from George Mason University, James Madison University, the University of Virginia, Virginia Tech, and Virginia Commonwealth University. Also included are researchers and staff from the Center for Security Information Systems at George Mason University, the Institute for Infrastructure and Information Assurance at James Madison University, and the joint George Mason/James Madison Critical Infrastructure Protection Project. In addition, our membership includes representatives from most post-secondary education institutions/systems in Virginia. 

Why Sponsor

VASCAN is the only security conference in Virginia specifically geared toward Higher Education security professionals. VASCAN’s membership and conference attendees include representatives from most public and private higher education institutions and the community college system in Virginia. At the VASCAN conference, public sector employees and our higher ed members are often in attendance. We expect VASCAN 2022 to return to normal attendance levels and include a mix of technical staff, managers, and CISOs.
