The New State & Local Cybersecurity Grant Program: What to Know & When to Act


Event Date: October 18, 2022

The $1 billion State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program is the first federal cybersecurity-focused program that provides funds for governments to invest in their cybersecurity infrastructure. This historic funding is an incredible opportunity for states, local governments, and territories to address cybersecurity risks and threats that can disrupt the critical services they provide their communities. States will receive funding from the federal government and must pass at least 80% of their allocation down to local governments to support their cybersecurity projects. In order to optimize your government’s chance of accessing these funds, it’s crucial to begin thinking now about your cybersecurity needs and to know the types of information you’ll need to gather as these funds become available -- especially for those that fall into the November 15th deadline for the designated State Administrative Agency (SAA).

Attendees joined the Grants Office, with special guests Carahsoft, Okta, and AWS Marketplace, as they discussed this exciting new funding opportunity. They provided an overview of the program, discussed the way funds will flow from states to local governments, explained what next steps you can take to prepare, and shared information on how Carahsoft helps you easily procure the cybersecurity solutions you need through AWS Marketplace. If your government is looking to find funds for its next cybersecurity project, we encourage you to watch the recording!
