NIS-2 Directive Foundation Training and Certification

The NIS-2 Foundation course provides you with a solid foundational understanding of the NIS-2 Directive and its significance for modern organizations. The focus is on how cyber and information security must be approached, managed, and accounted for in a holistic manner going forward. You will learn about the objectives, structure, and scope of NIS-2 and understand why the directive goes far beyond traditional IT security measures. The training explains the key requirements for organizations—from risk management and security measures to reporting obligations and clear accountability at the executive level. In addition, you will learn how NIS 2 can be effectively integrated into existing security, governance, and compliance structures. Practical examples demonstrate how to plan and evaluate the first steps toward implementation without getting lost in regulatory details. The NIS-2 Foundation thus provides a solid knowledge base for confidently understanding the directive’s requirements, interpreting them correctly, and making informed decisions regarding the implementation of cyber resilience and information security.

The NIS-2 Foundation is designed for anyone who wishes to develop a fundamental understanding of the requirements and implications of the NIS-2 Directive for their organization. It is particularly aimed at specialists and executives involved in cybersecurity, information security, corporate security, governance, risk, or compliance. The target audience includes employees from IT, information security, and data protection, as well as managers from management, legal, audit, or procurement who need to contextualize NIS-2 and integrate it into existing structures. Project managers, consultants, and anyone involved in the preparation or implementation of NIS-2 measures will also benefit from this training. The NIS-2 Foundation course is also ideal for beginners new to NIS-2 who are seeking a structured, easy-to-understand introduction, as well as for decision-makers who need a solid foundation for strategic and organizational decisions in the context of cyber resilience and regulatory compliance.

The goal of the NIS-2 Foundation is to provide you with a clear, solid understanding of the requirements and objectives of the NIS-2 Directive. This training will enable you not only to understand NIS-2 as a regulatory requirement, but also to contextualize its significance for your organization’s strategic direction, structure, and operational practices. The purpose of the training is to provide you with a common technical foundation upon which well-informed decisions can be made. You will learn about the obligations arising from NIS-2, how to clearly assign responsibilities, and the role that risk, security, and governance structures will play in the future. The focus is not on technical detail, but rather on understanding interrelationships, mechanisms, and priorities. The NIS-2 Foundation thus provides guidance and confidence in dealing with the directive. It helps you realistically assess the need for action, prepare initial implementation steps, and lay the groundwork for further measures, roles, or qualifications in the context of cyber resilience and information security.

You do not need any prior knowledge to participate in the NIS-2 Directive Foundation course.
