Sponsor Information

The Third Annual Information and Network Security Conference will take place next April and we would like to invite you to participate in next year's event as an exhibitor and/or sponsor. The 2005 event is scheduled for April 19-22 in San Diego, CA.

SecureIT 2005 promises to be our best conference yet. The SecureIT conference has grown significantly since our first event in April of 2003. SecureIT 2004 saw attendance rise to nearly 350 IT and Security Decision makers from across the United States and from 9 other nations. The 2005 event has again received full support from the California State University's Chancellor's Office and from the California Community Colleges.  We have also received a sponsorship commitment from ISSA which should significantly boost our industry exposure.  Of course, the event will be hosted by California State University, San Bernardino . Our venue for 2005 will be the Town and Country Resort in beautiful San Diego, CA.

This Information and Network Security Conference will provide information security professionals with the most up-to-date information, tools, trends, legislative information, products, services, and strategies for addressing information and network security issues. The conference will focus on key issues related to information and network security, with presentations provided by recognized experts and exhibits by some of the nation's leading organizations.

This event continues to grow and is fast becoming one of the premier events for IT and information security professionals. The continuing support of the California State University and a program development committee made up of nationally recognized leaders in the field help ensure that attendance will be even stronger for the third annual conference. As before, we will market the event to an international audience of decision makers in higher education and government. We hope to expand this audience this year with greater attention to IT professionals in the Community Colleges and K-12 Systems in the western states. Of course, we will also continue to target accounting and health care professions, attorneys, and other interested groups. Our direct mail promotional materials go out to over 15,000 addresses ensuring very broad exposure to IT decision makers around the country.
