The digital transformation has introduced several new business opportunities for companies, but also new risks. Cybersecurity is a great concern for companies today, especially for Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs), which are more vulnerable. SMEs typically lack an internal IT department and their staff and management are not used to deal with cyber risks. Therefore, it is essential to help the SMEs’ management understand the need to introduce adequate IT security policies and provide proper training for their staff. The InCyT (Interdisciplinary Cyber Training) Erasmus + project aims to train the staff of companies that do not have specific IT skills in their staff to deal with problems related to cybersecurity. The training program identifies and responds to the training needs of both managers and staff, developing two different training courses. This paper describes the project approach and the early outcomes.
