A call for proposals within the program Advanced digitalisation
This the call for proposals offers funding for project that will develop solutions to the cyber security challenges that arise when new advanced digitization solutions are implemented in businesses. The projects that are financed must address the needs of industry and business, both today and in the future.
The call for proposals is part of the Advanced digitalisation programme, which is an industry-driven programme to promote Sweden's and Swedish industry's ability to create the digital solutions of the future. The program's starting point is the system-by-system aspect, where combined data flows from several systems enable new and expanded areas of use. Interconnected systems that share data facilitate many processes and create new opportunities, but can also involve security risks. A basic prerequisite for industry and business to be able to use advanced digital solutions is that data and flows between systems are robust from a cyber security perspective.
