Why join PCSI?

Your success factors

Shared workload

You allocate your resources to work on the complex themes that matter to you. At the same time you benefit from the shared expertise and resources of all other partners. Our project teams combine unique sets of expertise that complement and reinforce each other. This makes working on cyber security innovation much more effective!

Shared budget

By combining all partnership funding, we create a pooled innovation budget, which results in a multiplied program value for each and every partner. On top of this collective partnership funding, we have a secured government-backed matching fund that doubles the collective innovation budget. PCSI receives funding from national government (Holland High Tech with a PPP Grant for Research and Innovation in Top Sector HTSM) for each private company that joins the PCSI as a core partner.

Shared learnings

To optimise our output and impact, PCSI partners make use of anonymized data to relevant projects. By using anonimized data, we enhance the quality and quantity of testing procedures and consequently the quality of the end result. All learnings and results from projects are fully shared with all partners, even those that have not participated in a certain project themselves. Our key findings are also proactively shared outside of the partnership in order to increase their impact and foster a higher digital resilience of society.
