The MassCyberCenter at the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative is accepting applications for the Cyber Resilient Massachusetts Grant Program from municipalities across the state to boost their cybersecurity infrastructure.

A total of $1.4 million in funding is available for the grants, which will help to build up municipal defenses against cybersecurity threats.

Cities and towns are eligible for up to $25,000 to fund narrowly focused cybersecurity technology upgrades, which will be identified through a cybersecurity vulnerability assessment.

The grants may fund capital equipment, technology and infrastructure for cybersecurity improvement projects, including vendors/contractors or IT-related staff costs to the municipality for performing the upgrades.

Applications are open and reviewed quarterly. The next review deadline is Sept. 30. The application and notice of funding opportunity are available on the MassCyberCenter website.
