Overview
The NIS 2 Directive gives the opportunity to risk and compliance managers to implement new and more stringent cybersecurity rules, and to dramatically improve risk prevention, detection, response, incident handling, business continuity, supply chain security, vulnerability handling and disclosures.
According to Article 20 (Governance), the management bodies of essential and important entities must approve the cybersecurity risk-management measures taken by those entities, oversee its implementation, and can be held liable for infringements.
According to Article 20, Member States shall ensure that the members of the management bodies of essential and important entities are required to follow training, and shall encourage essential and important entities to offer similar training to their employees on a regular basis, in order that they gain sufficient knowledge and skills to enable them to identify risks and assess cybersecurity risk-management practices and their impact on the services provided by the entity.
According to Article 21 (Cybersecurity risk-management measures), essential and important entities must take appropriate and proportionate technical, operational and organisational measures to manage the risks posed to the security of network and information systems which those entities use for their operations or for the provision of their services, and to prevent or minimise the impact of incidents on recipients of their services and on other services.
Taking into account the "state-of-the-art" and, where applicable, relevant European and international standards, as well as the cost of implementation, the measures referred shall ensure a level of security of network and information systems appropriate to the risks posed. When assessing the proportionality of those measures, due account shall be taken of the degree of the entity’s exposure to risks, the entity’s size and the likelihood of occurrence of incidents and their severity, including their societal and economic impact.
The measures shall be based on an "all-hazards approach" that aims to protect network and information systems and the physical environment of those systems from incidents, and shall include "at least" the following:
(a) policies on risk analysis and information system security;
(b) incident handling;
(c) business continuity, such as backup management and disaster recovery, and crisis management;
(d) supply chain security, including security-related aspects concerning the relationships between each entity and its direct suppliers or service providers;
(e) security in network and information systems acquisition, development and maintenance, including vulnerability handling and disclosure;
(f) policies and procedures to assess the effectiveness of cybersecurity risk-management measures;
(g) basic cyber hygiene practices and cybersecurity training;
(h) policies and procedures regarding the use of cryptography and, where appropriate, encryption;
(i) human resources security, access control policies and asset management;
(j) the use of multi-factor authentication or continuous authentication solutions, secured voice, video and text communications and secured emergency communication systems within the entity, where appropriate.
Objectives
The program has been designed to provide with the skills needed to understand and support compliance with the NIS 2 Directive.
It also provides with the skills needed to pass the NIS 2 Directive Trained Professional (NIS2DTP) exam, and to receive the Certificate of Completion, that provides independent evidence to firms and organizations that you have a quantifiable understanding of the subject matter.
Target Audience
The program is beneficial to risk and compliance managers and professionals, auditors, consultants, suppliers and service providers that:
- work for EU companies and organizations that have to comply with the NIS 2 Directive,
- work for non-EU companies and organizations that have operations in EU Member States or provide services to EU citizens, and have to comply with the NIS 2 Directive.

Important note: This is an overview, not a detailed list of activities. Depending on their products or services, and where their products or services belong in NACE (the statistical classification of economic activities in the European Union), entities must carefully consider if they must comply with the NIS 2 Directive or not.
For example, in the scope of the NIS 2 Directive, we have the activity "manufacture of computer, electronic and optical products". What exactly does NIS 2 mean? According to NIS 2, these are "undertakings carrying out any of the economic activities referred to in section C division 26 of NACE Rev. 2":
We have to visit section C division 26 of NACE Rev. 2, and find:
26.1 Manufacture of electronic components and boards.
26.2 Manufacture of computers and peripheral equipment.
26.3 Manufacture of communication equipment.
26.4 Manufacture of consumer electronics.
26.5. Manufacture of instruments and appliances for measuring, testing and navigation; watches and clocks.
26.6. Manufacture of irradiation, electromedical and electrotherapeutic equipment.
26.7 Manufacture of optical instruments and photographic equipment.
26.8. Manufacture of magnetic and optical media.
Another example, in the category "banking" belong "Credit institutions as defined in Article 4, point (1), of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013". In Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, "credit institution" means an undertaking the business of which is to take deposits or other repayable funds from the public and to grant credits for its own account.
Non-EU entities must also comply with the NIS 2 directive.
In cases where a DNS service provider, TLD name registry, content delivery network provider, cloud computing service provider, data centre service provider and digital provider not established in the EU offers services within the EU, it should designate a representative.
In order to determine whether such an entity is offering services within the Union, it should be ascertained whether it is apparent that the entity is planning to offer services to persons in one or more Member States.
The mere accessibility in the Union of the entity’s or an intermediary's website or of an email address and of other contact details, or the use of a language generally used in the third country where the entity is established, is as such insufficient to ascertain such an intention.
However, factors such as the use of a language or a currency generally used in one or more Member States with the possibility of ordering services in that other language, or the mentioning of customers or users who are in the Union, may make it apparent that the entity is planning to offer services within the Union.
The representative should act on behalf of the entity and it should be possible for competent authorities or the CSIRTs to contact the representative. The representative should be explicitly designated by a written mandate of the entity to act on the latter's behalf with regard to the latter's obligations under this Directive, including incident reporting.
Non-EU entities that offers services to EU citizens must also be aware of Article 24.
Article 24, Jurisdiction and territoriality.
1. DNS service providers, TLD name registries, cloud computing service providers, data centre service providers and content delivery network providers referred to in point 8 of Annex I, as well as digital providers referred to in point 6 of Annex II shall be deemed to be under the jurisdiction of the Member State in which they have their main establishment in the Union.
2. For the purposes of this Directive, entities referred to in paragraph 1 shall be deemed to have their main establishment in the Union in the Member State where the decisions related to the cybersecurity risk management measures are taken. If such decisions are not taken in any establishment in the Union, the main establishment shall be deemed to be in the Member State where the entities have the establishment with the highest number of employees in the Union.
3. If an entity referred to in paragraph 1 is not established in the Union, but offers services within the Union, it shall designate a representative in the Union. The representative shall be established in one of those Member States where the services are offered. Such entity shall be deemed to be under the jurisdiction of the Member State where the representative is established.
In the absence of a representative, any Member State in which the entity provides services may take legal actions against the entity for the infringement of this Directive.

3. I want to learn more about the exam.
You can take the exam online from your home or office, in all countries.
It is an open book exam. Risk and compliance management is something you must understand and learn, not memorize. You must acquire knowledge and skills, not commit something to memory.
You will be given 90 minutes to complete a 35-question exam. You must score 70% or higher.
The exam contains only questions that have been clearly answered in the official presentations.
All exam questions are multiple-choice, composed of two parts:
a. A stem (a question asked, or an incomplete statement to be completed).
b. Four possible responses.
In multiple-choice questions, you must not look for a correct answer, you must look for the best answer. Cross out all the answers you know are incorrect, then focus on the remaining ones. Which is the best answer? With this approach, you save time, and you greatly increase the likelihood of selecting the correct answer.
TIME LIMIT - This exam has a 90-minute time limit. You must complete this exam within this time limit, otherwise the result will be marked as an unsuccessful attempt.
BACK BUTTON - When taking this exam you are NOT permitted to move backwards to review/change prior answers. Your browser back button will refresh the current page instead of moving backward.
RESTART/RESUME – You CANNOT stop and then resume the exam. If you stop taking this exam by closing your browser, your answers will be lost, and the result will be marked as an unsuccessful attempt.
SKIP - You CANNOT skip answering questions while taking this exam. You must answer all the questions in the order the questions are presented.
We do not send sample questions or past exams. If you study the presentations, you can score 100%.
When you are ready to take the exam, you must follow the steps described at "Question h. I am ready for the exam. What must I do?", at:

The presentations are not bullet points. They are effective and appropriate to study online or offline.
5. Do I need to buy books to pass the exam?
No. If you study the presentations, you can pass the exam. All the exam questions are clearly answered in the presentations. If you fail the first time, you must study more. Print the presentations and use Post-it to attach notes, to know where to find the answer to a question.
6. Is it an open book exam? Why?
Yes, it is an open book exam. Risk and compliance management is something you must understand and learn, not memorize. You must acquire knowledge and skills, not commit something to memory.
7. Do I have to take the exam soon after receiving the presentations?
No. You can take the exam any time. Your account never expires.
8. I want to receive a printed certificate. Can you send me one?
The cost of your certificate with a scannable QR code for verification is included in the cost of the program. We will send it via email in Adobe Acrobat format (pdf). You will receive it up to 7 working days after you pass the exam.
The cost of each printed certificate sent to your mail address is $75. It includes the administration, processing, and posting via registered mail with tracking number. Printed certificates are usually dispatched every 12 weeks. We accept payments with cards, QR, and PayPal.
You do not need to order a printed certificate. You can simply print your certificate that you will receive in Adobe Acrobat format (pdf). With the scannable QR code, all third parties can verify the authenticity of each certificate in a matter of seconds.
9. Why should I purchase this program?
Firms and organizations hire and promote “fit and proper” professionals who can provide evidence that they are qualified. Employers need assurance that employees have the knowledge and skills needed to mitigate risks and accept responsibility. Supervisors and auditors ask for independent evidence that the process owners are qualified, and that the controls can operate as designed, because the persons responsible for these controls have the necessary knowledge and experience.
There are many new Directives and Regulations in the EU, and our target audience is overwhelmed and has little time to spare. Cyber Risk GmbH has developed a program that can assist them in understanding the new requirements, and in providing evidence that they are qualified, as they must pass an exam to receive their certificate of completion.
The all-inclusive cost of our distance learning programs is very low. There is no additional cost for each program, now or in the future, for any reason.
There are 3 exam attempts per year that are included in the cost of each program, so you do not have to spend money again if you fail.
You have a 100 USD discount for your second and each additional program from Cyber Risk GmbH (the all-inclusive cost is 197 USD).
