CRS Reports – Week of 8-3-24 – Small Business Cybersecurity

This week the Congressional Research Service published a report on “The Cybersecurity for Small Business Pilot Program”. This program was started in 2022 and was designed to provide grants to States to help deliver cybersecurity assistance to nascent and start-up business owners. It has distributed $9 million in grant fund to date. An additional $3 million in grants is slated to be issued later this year.

This report looks at the history of the program and briefly lists other federal programs to help small businesses with cybersecurity issues. It concludes with an ‘issues for Congress’ section that looks at options available to Congress to continue, modify, or redirect the program.
