Our one-day certified training course provides a comprehensive introduction to the NIS Directive. Participants will understand the structure of the Directive, the reporting mechanisms, and the legal implications for directly regulated entities.
The course provides insights into the compliance requirements for the currently enforceable NIS Directive (EU) 2016/1148 and the UK’s NIS Regulations (2018), and is a stepping stone for compliance with NIS 2 (EU) 2022/2555.
This course explores the security measures and incident reporting requirements introduced by the NIS Directive (Directive on security of network and information systems) ((EU) 2016/1148. The NIS Directive was introduced to achieve a high common level of network and information systems security across the EU among OES (operators of essential services) and DSPs (digital service providers).
The UK government implemented the Directive through its own NIS Regulations (Network and Information Systems Regulations 2018), where it forms part of the UK’s National Cyber Strategy. The course provides a comprehensive introduction to the EU NIS Directive and UK NIS Regulations, and a practical understanding of the implications and legal requirements for affected organisations. Delivered by an experienced cyber security practitioner, the training is built on the foundations of our extensive practical experience gained advising on compliance with international standards, such as ISO 27001 (information security management) and ISO 22301 (business continuity management).
