Ontario offers cybersecurity subsidy


 

The Ontario government will open applications Sept. 15 for a new fund that will offer up to $50,000 to associations upgrading their cybersecurity.


Ontario’s Cybersecurity Preparedness Initiative will cover half of the costs, up to $50,000 per organization.


Those eligible are all marketing boards and Beef Farmers of Ontario.

Applications can be filed up to Jan. 20.


The website is https://www.ontario.ca/page/cybersecurity-preparedness-initiative.


It's hard to believe that supply-management marketing boards need a taxpayer-funded subsidy for cybersecurity.
