New ECCC call for proposals under the Horizon Europe Programme is open for applications - European Cybersecurity Competence Centre and Network New ECCC call for proposals under the Horizon Europe Programme is open for applications The European Cybersecurity Competence Centre (ECCC) opened a new call for proposals under the Horizon Europe (HE) Programme for an overall indicative budget of up to EUR 56. 2 million.
European Cybersecurity Industrial, Technology and Research Competence Centre The call for proposals from Horizon Europe - Work Programme 2026-2027 Civil Security for Society (HORIZON-CL3-2026-02-CS-ECCC - Cybersecurity) implemented by the ECCC covers the following topics: Approaches and tools for security in software and hardware development and assessment (HORIZON-CL3-2026-02-CS-ECCC-01, EUR 20 million) This topic aims to develop innovative tools, methods, and processes to secure the entire ecosystem of software and hardware development.
Proposals are expected to contribute to one or more of the following: • Enhanced security frameworks for both hardware and software supply chains, building on root-of-trust architectures and secure lifecycle management; • Secure and trusted chip architectures for next-generation computing and networking systems; • Integrated security-by-design approaches in software development, aimed to be aligned with relevant regulatory requirements; • Security testing methodologies, including formal verification approaches and AI-driven security testing methodologies; • Standardised methodologies for hardware security assessment, also contributing to cybersecurity certification.
Enhancing the Security, Privacy and Robustness of AI Models and Systems (SecureAI) (HORIZON-CL3-2026-02-CS-ECCC-02, Budget EUR 21. 2 million) This topic aims to strengthen the resilience of AI systems and algorithms against various threats and attacks, such as enhancing their resilience against adversarial attacks, backdoor injections, and data poisoning.
Proposals should develop real-time anomaly detection, mitigation techniques to defend against adversarial attacks and robust federated learning techniques, in synergies with leading efforts on AI transparency, and in compliance with the AI Act.
Proposals are expected to contribute to one or more of the following: • Robust AI models and systems capable of resisting different classes of adversarial manipulation; • Innovative defence mechanisms for AI models and systems against new attack families; • Methodologies for detecting and mitigating attacks, such as data poisoning, backdoor exploitation and misclassification; • AI systems leveraging privacy-enhancing technologies that maintain data confidentiality and regulatory compliance, enabling trusted in-house AI deployments (e.g., for governments and enterprises).
Advanced cryptographic schemes and High-Assurance high-speed cryptographic implementations (HORIZON-CL3-2026-02-CS-ECCC-03, Budget EUR 15 million) Proposals are expected to contribute to one or more of the following: • Quantum-resistant cryptographic primitives, also other than lattice-based approaches if relevant, that enhance the security and privacy of digital wallets, both for natural persons and wallets, as well as the design and implementation of post-quantum solutions for entity authentication and authenticated key establishment over insecure networks; • Formal verification tools, improved High-Assurance Cryptographic Software (HACS) approaches and their integration in software workflows, to provide strong security guarantees in post-quantum migration, and enable streamlined evidence-based evaluation of secure systems that use cryptography.
For all 3 topics from above, proposals can be submitted until 15 September 2026 17:00 CET. The eligibility criteria and all relevant call documents are available on the Funding and Tenders portal at this link . Horizon Europe is the EU’s key funding programme for research and innovation.

At CGI on September 23, 2026, Global Impact Ventures committed $100 million over three years across economic opportunity, health, education, climate resilience and humanitarian needs. There is no application portal. The access route is the intermediary infrastructure — fiscal sponsorship, grantmaking administration, and a 250-organization network.

Posted August 19, 2026, with a first estimated due date of October 9. Here is what the mechanism swap actually changes for the 23 IDeA states and Puerto Rico.
Read articleThe State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program committed $1 billion over four years — and that Infrastructure Law money is now spent. The FY2025 round was the last IIJA-funded cycle, the local cost share climbed to 40%, and the program's future rests on a reauthorization bill. Here is how the SLCGP was structured, why the funding cliff matters, and how state and local IT leaders should position for the next round.
