Cybersecurity and Data Protection for Small, Medium, and Micro Enterprises (CYSSME)

Cybersecurity and Data Protection for Small, Medium, and Micro Enterprises (CYSSME) is a European Digital Europe Programme (DEP) initiative that began in December 2023 and will run for three years. CYSSME aims to improve access to European cybersecurity solutions by offering preselected, compatible technologies that connect multiple layers and can be maintained independently by Micro, Small, or Medium Enterprises (MEs/SMEs). Many of these solutions are funded by Europe or its Member States through R&D or innovation grants.

Built on the Cybersecurity Solutions Framework and linked to a cybersecurity application store with Open Source and commercial technologies, CYSSME provides tailored, demand-driven support to meet the unique needs of each ME or SME, ensuring informed cybersecurity decisions with expert guidance.
