Unisys Lands Major EU Cybersecurity Contract, Expands Public-Sector Footprint in Europe

Unisys Corporation (NYSE:UIS) is one of the small-cap tech stocks hedge funds were buying in Q2.

On October 9, 2025, Unisys announced it had been awarded a major cybersecurity contract by the European Commission. The deal is part of a framework agreement called FREIA, under which Unisys will lead the EUCybersafe Consortium – a team of firms tasked with delivering cybersecurity services across 71 EU institutions, bodies, and agencies. The scope includes threat intelligence, risk management, incident response, and overall cyber resilience.

This marks a meaningful win for Unisys in the European public-sector market, bolstering its credentials in a domain where trust, compliance, and institutional alignment are key barriers to entry. As EU member states ramp up digital defense in the face of rising cyber threats, this contract positions Unisys as a central player in the region’s cyber strategy architecture.

Unisys Corporation (NYSE:UIS) is a global IT services and solutions company specializing in digital workplace services, cloud infrastructure, enterprise computing, and cybersecurity. The company serves government and commercial clients worldwide.
