Projects

Cyberweerbaar NL aims to strengthen cyber resilience in the Netherlands through an eight-year research programme (2023–2031), funded by Regieorgaan SIA. Through the SPRONG initiative, SIA stimulates collaboration, quality, and impact in practice-based research among universities of applied sciences, businesses, and public institutions.

Key projects include:

• Research Agenda for Digital Resilience
Development of a strategic research agenda identifying key challenges and priorities for strengthening cyber resilience.

Evaluation of projects within the City Deal Local Cybercrime Resilience, focusing on implementation processes and effective elements. This study is commissioned by the Centre for Crime Prevention and Safety (CCV).

• Expedition Local Digital
A two-year action research project commissioned by Police and Science, aimed at developing effective local interventions against digital crime. Conducted in collaboration with police units in Northern and Eastern Netherlands, this research provides practical tools for local law enforcement teams.
