Cybersecurity skills across industrial sectors
The CYRUS project is a three–year initiative that aims to create more effective and engaging cybersecurity courses than traditional classroom courses. It aims to use new technologies such as digitalization, virtualization, and e-learning to create training courses that are customized to the specific needs and skills of each user.
Who is the project addressed to
The target group of the proposed training sessions is employees at all levels of the organization, mainly from small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) in the transport sector. These are both new entrants, professionals, and managers who want to improve their specialist competencies. Cybersecurity training paths will be tailored to each role and institution. They will also be personalized according to the skills, knowledge, and attitudes of the recipients.
Planned results
Participants of the training will be provided with a complete set of skills and resources necessary to remain vigilant to identify and respond to cyberattacks. The project will focus on developing 18 cybersecurity courses that will cover technical skills, methodological and organizational aspects, and practical exercises for the different industrial sectors, taking into account the needs of SMEs. The courses will include virtualization, dedicated cyber-range simulations in operational settings, and work-based learning. It will allow us to deliver the training on time and in an efficient way. The aim is to help organizations create an “innovation DNA” on cybersecurity by giving their employees the skills and knowledge that they need to identify, mitigate and respond to cyber threats.
The courses will include practical exercises, presentations, games and role-plays, case studies, and on-the-job simulations in a cyber-range environment. Thanks to this, the users will learn alongside their colleagues.
What does the Polish Platform for Homeland Security do in the project?
In the CYRUS project, the Polish Platform for Homeland Security (PPHS) is responsible for two activities. The first task is to prepare a plan for the implementation of short-term training courses and to design the methodology and tools for evaluating the training. Another action assigned to PPHS is the assessment of the participant’s knowledge and skill retention after the training.

Dołączyłem do Platformy w listopadzie 2017 roku. Przez długi czas byłem odpowiedzialny za realizację krajowych i europejskich projektów związanych z bezpieczeństwem. W związku z dynamicznym rozwojem PPBW oraz powstaniem Działu Komunikacji, zająłem się promocją i upowszechnianiem rezultatów naszych działań.
Obecnie koordynuję komunikację projektów finansowanych przez UE z obszaru bezpieczeństwa. Do moich obowiązków należy również zarządzanie kanałami online PPBW oraz wspieranie zespołu w bieżących pracach.
Posiadam szeroki zakres umiejętności, który pozwala mi realizować różnorodne zadania, takie jak tworzenie treści (teksty, zdjęcia, wideo), planowanie strategii komunikacyjnych i procesów, budowanie społeczności i relacji, a także administrowanie platformami online.
I’ve been working at PPHS since November 2017. For a long time, I was responsible for implementing both international and national security projects. As PPHS developed and the Communication Department was established, I was promoted to a role focused entirely on communication.
I currently serve as the Communication & Dissemination Manager for EU-funded security projects. My responsibilities also include managing the online channels run by PPHS and supporting the team with ongoing tasks.
I have a broad set of skills, enabling me to handle a variety of tasks such as content creation (texts, photos, videos), communication and process planning, community and relationship building, as well as managing online platforms.
