Enhancing the Resilience of Dutch Organizations

Vulnerabilities and internet misuse, such as phishing, DDoS attacks, and critical software vulnerabilities, are becoming increasingly common. To strengthen our digital resilience, it is crucial to provide targeted information to as broad a group of organizations as possible.

This project establishes the Dutch Security Contact Point, bringing together several existing initiatives (previously supported by the SIDN Fund) into one cohesive effort.

The contact point acts as a clearinghouse—an independent, reliable intermediary—ensuring that reports are directed to the appropriate parties to enhance the resilience of the digital domain against threats. Key partners in this initiative include AbuseIO, AMS-IX, Connect2Trust, the Dutch Institute for Vulnerability Disclosure (DIVD), the National Management Organization for Internet Providers (NBIP), and SURFcert. This project integrates several previously supported initiatives into one cohesive effort (Kickstart DIVD, Threatmatcher en Benchmarking als meetinstrument voor een schoon internet).

This is a scouted project. We support projects with potential, ensuring that the developed tool or solution can be widely adopted or implemented. Scouted projects are initiatives that can only apply to us by invitation.
