Eyvör NCC-IS Cybersecurity
The National Coordination Centre in Iceland (NCC-IS), Eyvör, awards a cybersecurity grant to support cybersecurity projects in Iceland.
Grants are intended to support the updating and uptake of new security solutions and their design among Icelandic companies and government agencies.
Special emphasis is given to knowledge acquisition, and the uptake of the latest cybersecurity solutions among small to medium sized enterprises (SMEs). In addition there is a view toward cooperation between the state and private companies as outlined in the government cybersecurity policy statement Netöryggisstefna Íslands 2022 – 2037 (in Icelandic).
