Visible to the public DHS S&T Cyber Division Funding ResearchConflict Detection Enabled

New story out on Federal News Radio talks about the work that the Department of Homeland Security is doing in funding and transition cybersecurity research.

I found some interesting tidbits.

  • DHS funding start up companies, and makes funding decisions on the same day research proposals are made
  • They fund companies at $200,000 for 6 months upto 4 times
  • Awarded 20 contracts
  • Cyber.gov will have information about security and the first documents for public comments are coming.
