RVAsec Security Community

RVAsec is a community built around cybersecurity based in Richmond, Virginia, but has members far beyond the greater mid-Atlantic region. We bring together professionals, students, and enthusiasts who care about learning, connecting, and growing together—whether you're deep into the industry or just getting started.

Held every June in Richmond, the event features:

• High-impact keynotes from industry leaders
• Hands-on activities like Capture the Flag (CTF) and lockpicking village
• A wide range of technical and business-focused talks

Meetups:
Our monthly social meetup is the heartbeat of the RVAsec community. No talks, no slides—just a relaxed chance to connect with others in the local security scene over drinks and good conversation. Everyone’s welcome, whether you're a seasoned pro or just curious about the field.
Beyond that, we also host topic-focused meetups throughout the year. These can include technical workshops, vendor presentations, roundtables, lightning talks, or special interest gatherings—organized by and for the community.
