CYSSME

Cybersecurity support for SMEs in the EU

CYSSME offers subsidised cybersecurity improvement projects to small, medium and micro-enterprises (SMEs) across the EU, helping businesses safeguard their operations.

Why is cybersecurity essential for SMEs?

Cybersecurity is crucial for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises as they face increasing cyber threats, often with limited resources to defend against them. In recent years, incidents such as data breaches, ransomware and phishing attacks targeting SMEs have surged.

Despite facing the same risks as larger firms, only 28% of SMEs rate their ability to mitigate these threats as highly effective. With sensitive data at risk and potentially severe financial consequences, it’s vital for SMEs to invest in cybersecurity solutions, staff training and vulnerability management to protect their operations and reputation.
