NIS2 training for employees

NIS2 asks for training for management and regular training for all staff. Here is what it says, in plain words, and how to deliver it so that people actually follow it.

What NIS2 asks, in three lines

The European NIS2 directive was transposed in Italy by Legislative Decree 138/2024. On training, it says three things.

01

Management gets trained

Management and governing bodies follow cybersecurity training (Legislative Decree 138/2024, art. 23).

02

So does the staff

The same bodies promote regular training for employees (Legislative Decree 138/2024, art. 23; NIS2 directive, art. 20).

03

It is a security measure

Basic cyber hygiene and training are among the risk management measures (NIS2 directive, art. 21, para. 2, point g).

Official texts: Legislative Decree 138/2024 on Normattiva (in Italian) and Directive (EU) 2022/2555 on EUR-Lex. This information is for general guidance and does not replace advice from your lawyer. Not sure whether NIS2 applies to you? Find your path gives you a first indication.

How we do it

Training that really works is training people finish. That’s why it is short, playful and easy to document.

01

For all staff

PensieroSicuro Premium: 12 modules of short videos, games and printable sheets, told by people who do security for a living. The video can’t be skipped, so completions are real.

02

Ready to document

With Premium Insights, HR sees participation, completions and training hours by group and by person, and downloads a PDF report to attach to the documentation.

The training content is in Italian.

Frequently asked questions

Does NIS2 apply to my company?

It depends on sector and size: the directive lists the sectors in its annexes and generally covers companies with 50 or more people or €10 million or more in turnover. Check it against the text of the decree, with your lawyer or adviser.

Does Premium make you NIS2 compliant?

No platform makes you compliant on its own. Premium supports training obligations with training people actually complete, and with reports to document it.

How much does it cost?

Premium costs €2.50 per person per month, excluding VAT, with a minimum one-year contract. Above 100 users the price drops in tiers, and with 2- or 3-year contracts, down to €1.40 per person.

How much time does it take?

Very little: the content is short and can be followed on a smartphone too, whenever there is a free moment.
