Audit Ready Academy™ – MANDATORY MANAGEMENT AND CISO TRAINING UNDER DECREE NO. 17/2025 (VII. 24.) EM

NIS2 training by active auditors

In our NIS2 audits, we see on a daily basis where cybersecurity exists only on paper. What we teach goes beyond theoretical knowledge; instead, we demonstrate how it translates into functional protection, with clear responsibilities, active processes and verifiable controls.

01

Strict statutory obligation

According to NIS2 (Decree No. 17/2025 EM), CISOs are required to complete a mandatory 20-hour basic training, while managers are required to complete 8 hours of basic training plus 4 hours of advanced training.
02

Fast approaching deadline

The statutory deadline for the completion of training of Chief Information Security Officers (CISO) appointed before 31 December 2025 is 31 December 2026.
03

Real reduction of risk

Participants will learn what to prevent, recognise and do in an incident, and not only what the auditor asks.

It works. It protects. It is verifiable.

  • Efficient controls: Specific explanation as to how the auditor will check a specific requirement on-site.
  • Real samples and errors: We use real-life examples to demonstrate how to prevent, detect and handle incidents.
  • Verifiable functioning: What really works should be documented, measurable and verifiable in the audit. Verifiability is more than just a goal, it is the inherent consequence of a functioning system.
