About the State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program
The State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program is a U.S. federal grant program designed to enhance cybersecurity measures at the state and local government level. It provides funding to state, local, tribal, and territorial governments to improve their cybersecurity infrastructure, protocols, and response capabilities.
The program aims to support the efforts of these entities in defending against cybersecurity threats, enhancing information sharing, and bolstering incident response capabilities. Through this program, governments can better protect critical infrastructure and sensitive data from cyberattacks. It also helps in building a more resilient cybersecurity ecosystem across various levels of government.
