OSHEAN connects every one of Rhode Island's higher education institutions — and several in Massachusetts — with research-grade networking, unmetered Internet2 access, and a security portfolio built for campus environments.
How OSHEAN supports higher education
Research-grade connectivity

Cloud at campus scale
Private transport to AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle OCI through the Internet2 Cloud Exchange — engineered around each application's latency, bandwidth, and resilience needs.
Campus security
Managed Fortinet firewalls, Cisco Duo MFA, Cisco Umbrella, vulnerability scanning, and GRC tooling proven across the OSHEAN membership.
