Cyber risk is a phenomenon characterised by multiple dimensions: in terms of scope, cyber risk concerns both financial entities as well as other types of entities; in terms of outreach, cyber risk has a global, EU, and national dimension, with continuous interlinkages between these levels due to the evolution of the cyber threat landscape and regulatory framework. This course deals with cyber risk management, exploring different approaches and focusing on supervisory strategies to assess and mitigate cyber risk. The course’s
sessions generally have an interactive approach, they include real life examples and case studies, as well as group activities. In contrast to a number of EU-SDFA online modules which are specifically dedicated to the analysis of the DORA Regulation, this advanced residential training week exposes participants to the general principles for the management of cyber risks and underlying relevant regulations. However, and where appropriate, the course will include references to relevant concepts and principles enshrined in the DORA framework.

Logistics
The foundational training weeks will be held at the FBF, within the premises of the EUI (Florence, Italy).
Each course will start on a Monday at 9 am and will end on a Thursday, approximately at lunch time.
FBF will reimburse travel in economy class (up to 450 euros) and accommodation for the duration of the course (up to 4 nights and up to a given ceiling), local public transportation and taxi expenses up to 100 €. Lunches, coffee breaks and a social dinner/activity, as indicated in the programme of every training week will be directly covered by FBF.
Accommodation expenses will be reimbursed to participants after the event according to the following ceiling: up to EUR 160 per night (city tax included), for a maximum of 4 nights
Training participants are responsible for booking both their flight and their accommodation in Florence. These expenses will be reimbursed after the end of the event upon the upload of the travel documentation and the relevant invoices (including boarding passes) to the online EUI reimbursement application (link and instructions will be duly shared with participants after the end of the event).
A list of conveniently located hotels will be provided to participants, but they are of course free to book hotels other than the ones suggested. In both cases, participants will be reimbursed up to the agreed ceiling and for single occupancy.
If participants book a hotel and share a double room, they must ask for the single room rate to be indicated on the hotel bill. Failing this, 25% of the price of the double room will be deducted from their reimbursement.
Participants can book their accommodation also on Airbnb, but in case they share the apartment with other people, the reimbursement will be divided by the number of guests.
A private transportation service will connect participants from/to Piazza dell’Indipendenza to/from the training venue every day. A detailed timetable will be provided before the starting of each training week.
