New for 2024: Because of the popularity of this event, there was an order in which past-participants and other interested companies could purchase participation opportunities (selection was based on member status and cumulative spend over the past three years of participation in the Cybersecurity and Privacy Professionals Conference, sorted high to low for members; nonmember selection took place after members). Selections began in mid-January based on the order above.
All opportunities come with a complimentary attendee address list of those that opt in to receive a promotional piece from your organization. The list is provided upon request by your organization's primary logistics contact once your promotional piece has been reviewed and approved by EDUCAUSE. Sponsorships come with additional benefits (noted below).
