Notice of Funding Opportunity for Cyber Resilient Massachusetts Grant Program

NOFO No. 2024-Cyber-01

The Mass Cyber Center, a division of the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative is issuing this Notice of Funding Opportunity for the Cyber Resilient Massachusetts Grant Program (NOFO No.2024-Cyber-01) to solicit responses from municipalities (“Respondents”) interested in receiving grants to fund narrowly focused cybersecurity technology upgrades identified through a cybersecurity vulnerability assessment. Grants will position municipalities to remediate cybersecurity vulnerabilities and be better positioned to defend against cybersecurity threats.

Municipalities in Massachusetts are eligible to receive a one-time grant of up to $25,000 to support cybersecurity improvements based on a vulnerability assessment conducted by a qualified provider. Respondents may apply grant funding towards the cost of vendors to implement the cybersecurity improvements or IT-related staff costs of the municipality performing the services in lieu of using a vendor.
