Silicon Valley Cybersecurity Conference 

Since 2020, the silicon valley cybersecurity conference supported by SVCSI (Silicon Valley Cybersecurity Institute), a nonprofit organization, has hosted a cybersecurity research and education forum for sharing innovative developments in cybersecurity for academia and industry. SVCSI will host the 5th conference with IEEE including various programs: research forums, tutorials, a cybersecurity competition, and an industry exhibition to bring together researchers, practitioners, educators, underrepresented communities, and others interested in the latest advances in the security of computer systems and networks. 

 

The 6th Silicon Valley Cybersecurity Conference (SVCC) will take place on June 23-25, 2025 in San Francisco. We plant to have 2-3 tutorials to provide SVCSI certificates, CyberWarrior (a.k.a Hackathon) with MetaCTF,  a poster session with NSF REU poster session, Google-sponsored career development session, and industry talks along with research tracks and keynote speakers.
