    CyberSecurity Awareness - 1 Day Full Course (EN)

    Holistic IT Security & Compliance (DORA/NIS2)

    Protect your company where technology meets people.

    In a world of AI-driven phishing, Shadow AI, and strict EU regulations like DORA and NIS2, a firewall alone is no longer enough. True resilience only grows when your employees evolve from a risk factor into an active protective shield.

    The Cybershield certification is a modular intensive training program that combines technical expertise with psychological awareness and legal compliance.

    Modules of Your Security Strategy

    Our training is divided into logical thematic clusters to guarantee long-term learning success:

    1. Strategy & Security Objectives
    Understand the CIA Triad (Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability) and implement professional data classification. We clarify the difference between InfoSec and CyberSec.

    2. The Psychology of Attacks
    Protect yourself against Social Engineering and CEO Fraud. We analyze the Phishing Kill Chain and demonstrate how modern malware (Ransomware & Infostealers) functions today.

    3. Technical Hygiene & Cloud
    From password cracking-time matrices and passkeys to the secure use of Cloud & AI. We eliminate Shadow IT and secure both home office and IoT environments.

    4. Resilience & Emergency Management
    Implement the 3-2-1 backup rule in a legally compliant manner (including GDPR Art. 17). In the event of an emergency, our 4-step emergency plan ensures you confidently meet strict reporting deadlines (24h/72h).

    What's included?

    Expert knowledge

    This training goes far beyond the abstract. Using real-world examples and actual security incidents, we demonstrate how cyberattacks originate, how they are detected, and the consequences they can have. Practical, easy to understand, and directly applicable to your daily work-turning knowledge into the confidence to act.

    Cybersecurity is everyone’s business.

    Even the best technology is of little use if people are not prepared. Employees are the first and most important shield against cyberattacks. This training strengthens awareness, expertise, and the confidence to act—ensuring that risks are identified early and attacks are successfully thwarted. Because sustainable cybersecurity begins with people.

    Certification and Handouts

    Supplementary handouts round out the course, providing clear, ready-to-use guidance. To ensure long-term success, the program concludes with a final assessment. Upon passing, participants receive an official certification, validating their expertise for both internal compliance and regulatory authorities.
