The grant aims to assist SLTT governments in Oklahoma with managing and reducing systemic cyber risks to their information systems and critical infrastructure. The Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security may issue sub-awards to local governments, tribes, and non-profits to implement localized cybersecurity projects using this federal grant funding.
