Cybersecurity and NIS2 for Transport and Logistics

Cybersecurity and NIS2 for Transport and Logistics

A practical course for professionals in the transport and logistics industry who need a structured understanding of cybersecurity and the NIS2 Directive in an operational environment. The agenda connects NIS2 requirements to real sector concerns such as operational continuity, third party dependencies, incident handling, supply chain exposure, and governance. It is especially relevant for organizations that rely on digital platforms, distributed operations, external service providers, and time critical service delivery. NIS2 covers transport and also includes postal and courier services within its sector scope, while ENISA highlights the growing cybersecurity importance of aviation, maritime, rail, and road transport.

What will you learn?

You will understand the core NIS2 concepts, obligations, and terminology that matter for transport and logistics organizations. You will connect those requirements to practical cybersecurity measures, incident reporting, governance, supplier oversight, and resilience planning. You will also examine how management accountability, cybersecurity culture, and operational readiness can be strengthened in organizations where service interruption has immediate business and customer impact. NIS2 establishes a common EU cybersecurity framework, introduces essential and important entities, and places clear emphasis on risk management, incident handling, supply chain security, and management body responsibility.

  • Understand the structure, terminology, and transport relevant scope of NIS2
  • Connect cybersecurity governance, incident handling, and supplier oversight into one operating model
  • Strengthen resilience through risk management, continuity planning, and scenario based thinking
  • Build leadership awareness and a stronger cybersecurity culture across operations and support functions

Requirements:

  • Suitable for professionals in transport, logistics, supply chain, operations, IT, security, compliance, and risk functions
  • Basic familiarity with operational processes, service dependencies, or technology environments is helpful
  • Interest in cybersecurity, resilience, governance, and third party oversight
