Key objectives include developing investigative techniques for Internet of Things (IoT) devices, creating forensic analysis capabilities, and establishing inter-agency collaboration. Applications are due by April 3, 2025.
The Economic, High-Tech, and Cyber Crime Prevention Federal Grant Program (CFDA 16.752) typically awards cooperative agreements and project grants ranging from $300,000 to $440,000, with 18-24 month performance periods. Recent grant recipients have included state and local law enforcement agencies across the country, such as the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the New York City Police Department. The grant funding is intended to support the development of task forces, training programs, and technical assistance initiatives that can address emerging technological threats and intellectual property crimes.
