What is NIS 2, and Why Should Your Business Care?

The EU’s NIS 2 Directive is a game-changer for businesses operating in critical and digital infrastructure sectors. It’s not just another regulation—it’s a comprehensive framework designed to strengthen cybersecurity across Europe and ensure resilience against ever-growing cyber threats.

Key Highlights of NIS 2:

  • Expanded Scope: Covers more industries, including healthcare, IT, energy, transport, finance, and public administration. Businesses in other sectors working with these industries must also comply.
  • Stricter Requirements: Introduces mandatory incident reporting, risk assessments, and vendor supply chain evaluations.
  • Senior Management Accountability: Places responsibility for compliance directly on executives, promoting a culture of cybersecurity throughout the organization.
  • Severe Penalties: Non-compliance could lead to fines of up to €10 million or 2% of global turnover.

Why Act Now?

The directive is already in force, and the deadline for compliance is fast approaching. Businesses that act promptly can avoid penalties, improve their resilience, and gain a competitive edge by demonstrating their commitment to cybersecurity.

Don’t wait until it’s too late. Start your compliance journey today!
