What is NIS2?
The NIS2 Directive is the EU’s updated cybersecurity law designed to strengthen security across critical sectors. It applies to medium and large organizations in industries like energy, transport, health, manufacturing, and digital infrastructure. Compliance is mandatory, and failure can lead to fines of up to €10 million and even personal accountability for executives.
Why It Matters
NIS2 introduces stricter requirements that organizations must meet to avoid penalties and protect their operations:
- Risk Management Policies
Companies must implement documented cybersecurity policies and procedures. This includes identifying risks, applying appropriate technical and organizational measures, and ensuring senior management takes responsibility for compliance. - Incident Reporting
Organizations must report significant cybersecurity incidents quickly an initial notification within 24 hours, followed by detailed updates. This ensures regulators and stakeholders can respond promptly to threats. - Supply Chain Security
NIS2 places strong emphasis on managing risks from suppliers and service providers. Remote access solutions, maintenance channels, and third-party integrations must be secured to prevent vulnerabilities from entering your network.
