Advanced Cyber Security
With the US Army standing up its Cyber Command at Fort Gordon, located in nearby Augusta GA, this makes our region a great location for Department of Defense contractors and other cyber-related companies to locate.
With numerous Class A office facilities currently in Aiken County, a contractor could be within 15 minutes of the gates of Fort Gordon. Workforce development continues to develop the next generation cyber warrior at all levels of academia, from K-12 to postsecondary with Aiken Technical College and University of South Carolina Aiken.
