Identity and security is our corporate DNA
The AVISIAN team includes a group of identity technology experts working alongside seasoned journalists, web and graphics professionals. Together, they create a unique combination – coupling the technology insight of a leading consultancy with the communication capabilities of a high-end communication and design firm.
Publishing
In 2000, AVISIAN launched its initial publication as a vehicle to promote the company’s consulting efforts. The rapid success of CampusIDNews (formerly CR80News) led to the creation of an entire division within the company focused exclusively on identity and security technology publishing.
Consulting
The team specializes in helping companies launch products and issuers rollout projects related to identity, security and credentialing technologies. Startups and Fortune 500 companies, leading financial institutions and Federal agencies, local colleges and Ivy League institutions have all turned to AVISIAN to ensure their products and projects succeed.
Communication services
Identity and security expertise is complemented by a creative team of copywriting, marketing and design professionals. This uniquely positions AVISIAN to assist organizations with messaging and marketing around identity technologies. Leading trade associations, vendors and issuing organizations rely on the team to craft messaging, design web and print materials, and craft go-to-market approaches.
Events
With unmatched reach into the identity and security community, AVISIAN has managed dedicated events and cooperated with others on both physical and virtual events. Longstanding trust with both exhibitors and attendees is nurtured through constant outreach from the publishing division. The team also delivers unique thought leadership in key areas such as credentialing, identity management, multi-factor authentication and more.
CampusIDNews
As the leading source for insight on technologies, products and players in the higher ed credential, security, and payment markets, CampusIDNews serves an extremely targeted yet crucial niche market. The publication covers both well-established and cutting-edge technologies – from magnetic stripe and barcodes to smart cards, biometrics and mobile IDs. Though higher education is the core target of the publication, K-12 (primary and secondary education) campuses and corporate campuses are also represented in both the content and audience.
