NIS2 - BOARDROOM TRAINING

    Boardroom Training Cybersecurity Act (Cbw/NIS2)

    Cybersecurity is board responsibility. The Cybersecurity Act (Cbw/NIS2) explicitly places responsibilities on directors: the board must be able to understand cyber risks, assess and approve appropriate measures, and oversee the implementation.

    The questions that matter

    Five questions that determine whether your board is ready for the NIS2:
    • Do you know your main cyber risks?
    • Which risks does your organization accept?
    • Are your cybersecurity investments proportional?
    • Do you have a grip on your critical suppliers?
    • Can you demonstrate to a supervisor that you actually exercise supervision?

    The program

    (A) Session 1

    Administrative interpretation of the law

    Cybersecurity is not an IT issue but a board responsibility. You will learn what the Cybersecurity Act and NIS2 concretely ask of you, including personal liability. Using interactive exercises (Board of Directors versus management decisions, investment dilemmas), you will discover how to balance continuity, risks, and duty of care. No technical depth, but the right administrative questions.
    (B) Session 2

    Cyber crisis simulation

    The theory comes to life with a realistic crisis simulation: a ransomware attack directly affects your services. Under time pressure, you make decisions about continuity, reporting obligation, privacy, communication, and ransom. Additionally, you will work on your own dashboard, governance structure, and a concrete action list for your organization.

    Provided by experienced CISOs

    The training is provided by cybersecurity and information security professionals with a track record as a CISO. They ensure that risk management and digital resilience are placed more prominently on the board agenda, with attention to:
