About the webinar

A cyber security manager is neither a server administrator nor someone who single-handedly resolves everything related to cyber security. Their job is to manage risks, plan measures, monitor compliance with obligations, and bring key issues to the attention of the organisation's management.

The Cyber Security Act and its implementing decrees have a fairly clear idea of the manager's role. What they don't tell you is what such an agenda looks like in an ordinary week. What does a cyber security manager do themselves, what do they coordinate, what should they leave to asset guarantors or administrators, and how should they set up their relationship with management so that the role isn't just a signature on documentation?

In the webinar, we'll look at the role from both sides: what the act and the decree say, and what it looks like at organisations in practice. We'll also show the difference between a cyber security manager under the higher regime and a person entrusted with cyber security under the lower regime. Finally, we'll take a look at the professional qualification exam 18-015-T Cyber Security Manager and explain who it's worth it for and how to prepare for it.

Agenda

Who the cyber security manager is in practice and under the law: what a typical agenda looks like, from documentation and risks to planning measures and what doesn't belong in it.
Higher vs. lower regime of obligations: how the duties of a cyber security manager differ from those of a person entrusted with cyber security.
What a cyber security manager must meet: training, three years of experience, substitutability, and separation of the role from the operation of technical assets.
The reality, which isn't always rosy: a role without authority, a manager who also administers servers, reporting to top management, and the question of when to fill the role internally and when externally.
Professional qualification exam 18-015-T: what it tests, who it's worth it for, and how to prepare for it.

Who’s leading the webinar?

Kateřina Hůtová

Katka is a cyber security manager, managing director and co-founder of Cybrela. She also serves as a cyber security manager for clients, so she'll share her hands-on experience with you, not just an interpretation of the decree.

Who should attend?

Beginners in cyber security and more junior security and IT roles who want to know where to move next in the field. Also for anyone considering the professional qualification exam who first wants to clarify whether the role of a cyber security manager is right for them. It's equally useful for anyone who already handles part of this agenda but needs to clarify the scope of the role, the legal requirements, or the options for obtaining a professional qualification.
