MID digital security supports micro, small and medium-sized companies in uncovering and fixing security gaps in their own operations and thus becoming more resilient to cyber attacks.
The new sub-program promotes measures in three different areas of focus, which can be combined with one another as desired:
- With the help of the funding, companies can have an analysis of the current state of IT security carried out and take measures to eliminate the vulnerabilities identified.
- Training for employees is supported in order to raise their awareness of digital security and provide them with targeted training.
- The purchase of software for basic IT protection (e.g. anti-virus and anti-ransom software) is encouraged.
MID-Digital Security offers a funding rate of 80% for micro-enterprises and small businesses and 60% for medium-sized companies; the funding amount is €4,000-15,000.
