Cybersecurity is no longer just a matter of firewalls and antivirus software. Growing regulatory requirements, customer pressure and increasingly frequent attacks are forcing companies to approach security systematically, from risk management and supply chain protection to incident preparedness.
A new grant opportunity is now available. The National Cyber and Information Security Agency (NÚKIB) has announced the Cyber Security Boost call, under which projects can receive support ranging from CZK 1.5 to 2.5 million.
The aim is not to finance isolated one-off measures. The call supports the creation, development and practical validation of solutions that can help a wider range of organisations, for example in the form of repeatable services, tools, methodologies or implementation packages.
Who is the call suitable for?
This opportunity is particularly relevant for companies and organisations that have an idea for a service or solution in the field of cyber resilience and want to validate it in real operations.
Supported areas include, for example:
- solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises, such as security self-assessment, prioritisation of measures or transferable implementation packages,
- tools and services for compliance with regulations such as NIS2, CRA or DORA,
- management of cyber risks, vulnerabilities, supply chain security or secure development,
- preparation for security incidents, incident response and business recovery,
- training scenarios, recovery testing, reporting or incident coordination.
An important condition is practical validation: the project must include at least one pilot deployment and demonstrate that the outcome is functional, beneficial and usable beyond a single specific organisation.
You have the opportunity. We will help turn it into a working solution
This is exactly where it makes sense to have an experienced IT partner by your side. Cybersecurity is not a standalone product that can simply be purchased once and ticked off. It is a combination of technologies, processes, people, operations and long-term development.
We will help you:
- assess whether your project fits the call,
- design a meaningful and scalable solution,
- prepare the technical architecture and pilot deployment plan,
- cover the areas of security, compliance and risk management,
- deliver, integrate and operate the resulting solution as a long-term service.
Whether you are dealing with NIS2 readiness, security monitoring, vulnerability management, backup and recovery, incident response or secure development, together we will find a way to turn the requirement into a practical project with real impact.
Do not miss the deadline
Applications opened on 24 September and, according to the announced conditions, close on 30 November 2026. If you are considering a project, we recommend starting as soon as possible. A high-quality proposal, selecting the pilot environment and preparing the scope of the solution all take time.
Would you like to check whether your idea could succeed? Get in touch with us. We will go through the options with you, propose a suitable approach and help you turn cyber resilience from an obligation into a competitive advantage.
