Cybersecurity Grant 2025 – €1,250 for SME security

IT security doesn’t have to be difficult or expensive

For many SMEs in the Netherlands, IT security feels like a complex and costly affair. Yet in 2025 that is no longer necessary. As of July 18, entrepreneurs can again use the subsidy scheme “My Cyber Resilient Business”. This gives you up to €1,250 for measures that really protect your organization against cyber threats.

The Digital Trust Center has made €1 million available for this purpose – but those who are late will miss out.
