Basic information security for all employees

Basic information security for all employees

Course Summary

A practically oriented course on the key information security laws and regulations affecting Swedish organizations. We go through the EU’s NIS2 directive and its Swedish implementation (Cyber Security Act), GDPR / Data Protection Regulation, as well as other relevant requirements such as ISO / IEC 27001 and industry-specific regulations. You will get a clear picture of what activities are covered, what security measures and reporting requirements apply, and how to build a sustainable continuous compliance program. The course emphasizes the importance of management commitment and integrated safety management, and includes workshops where you identify gaps in your own organization and formulate action plans. We also look at upcoming regulations, such as the AI Act, to stay ahead of the game.
