RV4sec is the only security conference between Washington DC and Raleigh NC, reaching a largely untapped market of security professionals and executives. We expect RV4sec 2015 to be approximately 350 to 400 people–a mix of technical engineers, managers and CISOs. Sponsorship has the potential to reach local attendees from several large corporations, including Capital One Bank, Carmax, Dominion, Markel, Altria, Genworth, GE, Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, Anthem, and MeadeWestvaco, among others. In its third year, RVAsec 2014 drew 350 attendees from Richmond, Washington, DC and beyond.
We have multiple sponsorship levels to meet your needs–each level includes various items and perks. There are a limited numbers of sponsors at each level, and sponsors are picked solely at the discretion of RVAsec in order to best serve our attendees and sponsors.
Vendor spaces are limited and filling fast – If you are interested in sponsoring RV4sec, please contact sponsors@rvasec.com
Tickets for RV4sec 2015 are now on sale!
Early registration price is only $125 for great speakers, food and beverages, t-shirt, swag, parking and more!
RV4sec’s base ticket price for 2015 is $150 and will be in place on 3/14–so don’t wait! And if that’s not enough incentive to purchase your tickets early, late registrations (after 5/17) will be $225!
Don’t forget all the things you get with registration, including 2 full days of talks, meals, parking, snacks, drinks, reception, after party, prizes, a capture the flag contest, t-shirt & swag!
So, to recap the conference prices:
If you are unable to attend due to the price, please contact us to discuss as we do have stipends available and volunteer opportunities are a great way to get in for free! Once again there will be no tickets sold at the door, and don’t forget that RV4sec has sold out every year–so don’t wait!

Hey, RVASec! I’m Schuyler, physical security guy, lockpicker, researcher, etc. I’ve been very honored to run trainings at RVASec the past 2 years, and while I feel confident that I’ve been able to bring a lot of material and hands-on experience to folks who took my classes, this year I’m trying to take a big leap forward.
We are pleased to announce that TruShield Security has agreed to sponsor breakfast Friday, and the reception at the conclusion of RVAsec!
