Templates and Guidelines for Applicants:

Topic 1 | Full Deployment and Validation of the Final Integrated CyberSecDome Prototype
This topic invites applicants to deploy and validate the fully integrated CyberSecDome platform in real-world operational environments across diverse critical domains. Unlike Round 1, which focused on evaluating individual components or subsystems, Round 2 proposals must demonstrate end-to-end integration and the practical utility of the CyberSecDome ecosystem in specific use cases.
Applicants are expected to:
- Deploy and test the full CyberSecDome prototype, including its AI-enhanced tools, VR interfaces, and collaborative modules.
- Propose domain-specific use cases that complement the project’s existing pilots in aviation and telecommunications.
- Provide structured feedback on performance, usability, interoperability, and operational impact.
- Collaborate with the CyberSecDome Open Call Implementation Team (OCIT) and technical partners for onboarding, monitoring, and integration support.
- Selected proposals will play a key role in demonstrating the maturity, relevance, and adaptability of the CyberSecDome solution in real-world settings.
Up to €120,000 per project
