## What the grant funds

Our nation faces unprecedented threats to the homeland from increasingly sophisticated criminal groups and nation-state actors. Tribal governments stand at the forefront of cyber defense. This partnership includes enforcing laws, assisting the federal government in securing borders and cyberspace, and dismantling transnational criminal organizations. Cybersecurity threats, including ransomware intrusions, and widespread software vulnerabilities affecting Tribal government systems and critical infrastructure are increasingly exploited by malicious actors, operating both domestically and abroad. To strengthen the essential partnership DHS maintains with Tribal governments in executing its mission, DHS is committed to supporting their efforts to combat cybersecurity threats and mitigate risks that endanger these vital functions. Considering the risk and potential consequences of cyber incidents, strengthening the cybersecurity practices and resilience of Tribal governments is an important homeland security mission and the primary focus of TCGP. This program enables DHS to make targeted cybersecurity investments in Tribal governments, thus improving the security of critical infrastructure and improving the resilience of the services Tribal governments provide their communities. Applicants can submit applications for this funding opportunity through FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO). Access the system at https://go.fema.gov/.
