Cybersecurity Basics – Safe Digital Behavior for Employees (ZKB1A)

Cybersecurity, ICT Security

This one-day course shows that internet security is not just about passwords but about building correct digital habits, recognizing common cyber threats, and understanding basic organizational rules. The course explains NIS2-related requirements in plain, practical terms.

Participants will learn key routines to prevent incidents, from managing credentials and spotting phishing to using cloud services safely and handling suspected incidents. The session is hands-on and focused on clear steps and NIS2-compliant measures.

THIS TRAINING COURSE WILL HELP YOU:

  • Develop a "digital instinct" to spot suspicious emails, sites and messages
  • Use cloud services safely to store and share work files securely
  • Create a robust, secure password system
  • Protect your digital identity
