Successfully Secure Grant Funds
To Improve Cybersecurity and Safety
Federal, state, and local governments are currently offering a wide range of grants to help support communities and businesses in improving their broadband infrastructure and communication networks. At Guide Star, we believe that every community, and every person, should have the ability to stay safely connected. We have developed a Cybersecurity Grant Writing Support Program to help our clients meet key cybersecurity requirements and receive maximum grant funds to make the most of their budget once awarded.
Our Cybersecurity Grant Writing & Support Expertise
Our dedicated grant support teams are well-versed on the public funding available for communities and businesses and can help to gather the correct information, develop a detailed action plan, provide impact data, and develop unique cybersecurity plans to secure available broadband funding from federal agencies such as the NTIA and USDA.
Our team includes some of the industry’s most experienced cybersecurity and IT management consultants, allowing us to ensure compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and grant guidelines to support the efficient and successful completion of our project together.
Understanding Grant Cybersecurity Requirements for Broadband Expansion
The federal government is currently distributing broadband infrastructure grants to internet service providers through the American Rescue Plan Act. The new BEAD Program significantly expands on the cybersecurity and safety requirements for grant subrecipients. A strong action plan with viable data supporting cybersecurity compliance is paramount to the successful retention and application of grant funds. Work with Guide Star to ensure your grant request meets all cybersecurity planning requirements!
