Update 12/2024: The results of what get funded are now available at Rannís and the ministry even provides more details.

Icelandic Smaller and Middle-size Enterprises (SMEs) can now apply for cybersecurity-related funding for

• strengthening cybersecurity culture and awareness,
• efficient education, research and development,
• secure digital services and innovation,
• stronger law enforcement, defense and national security,
• effective response to incidents, and
• strong infrastructure, technology and legal framework.

This is in the context of Eyvör – the National Cybersecurity Coordination Centre of Iceland (NCC-IS). See also the Icelandic announcement from the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Innovation which includes the agenda of that kick-off meeting for that funding where we gave a presentation on the state of cysec in Iceland..
