The deadline is the 7th of October 2025.
The call aims to strengthen the cybersecurity of hospitals and healthcare providers and enable them to effectively detect, monitor, and respond to cyber threats, particularly ransomware. This action will contribute to the EU's action plan on cybersecurity and hospitals.
It aims to:
• Map the common cybersecurity needs of hospitals and healthcare providers,

• Develop technical cybersecurity plans to improve preparedness and cyber resilience,
• Conduct pilot projects to demonstrate cybersecurity,
• Launch a large-scale dissemination campaign to support hospitals and healthcare providers in Europe
Therefore, the French company is seeking strategic European partnerships with companies specializing in the field of cyber crisis management, or European care facilities interested in this project call. They are still searching for a coordinator as well.
As a project partner they can provide their hybrid Cyber Range, a tailored environment for testing (Digital Twin) and training through customized online or on-site cyber crisis exercises. This platform enables organizations to replicate, either fully or partially, any IT or OT infrastructure. The Hybrid Cyber Range can simulate both online and on-premises cyber attacks, tailored to the specific challenges and needs of the health sector. The platform allows teams to be placed in a fictional yet realistic cyber crisis situation, helping them practice and train to improve their response capacity in the event of a cyber crisis. The company also offers a catalog of training programs and cyber crisis exercises based on the use of the Hybrid Cyber Range. - Advantages and Innovations
-
The company has already been involved in the set-up and management of a European project as a partner in a consortium of 12 private and public entities.
This initiative saw the company to develop together with other stakeholders a cutting-edge simulation platform tailored to the challenges of the maritime sector and its logistics chain. This project aimed to enhance cybersecurity awareness and preparedness among maritime and port stakeholders. Through this collaboration, the company played a pivotal role in creating realistic attack scenarios, such as one involving a major Spanish port, to illustrate potential vulnerabilities and strengthen defensive measures. This involvement underscores the company's dedication to advancing cybersecurity and its ability to work effectively within large, multinational consortia to achieve impactful results.
The Hybrid Cyber Range product provides a highly realistic environment that can replicate the technical infrastructure of various organizations, ensuring that the participants train in conditions that are fully identical to the ones they face in their actual everyday work. This way, they are sure to gain expertise and knowledge that are relevant to their organizational challenges and needs of European care facilities.
In addition, this product is a user-friendly & powerful tool to replicate existing information systems in order to test & develop abilities such as pentesting, network protection, system hardening, etc. - Stage of Development
