What is NIS2?<\/h3>\n

The Network and Information Security Directive 2 is the successor to the 2016 NIS1 directive. Whereas the first version focused on a limited number of sectors, NIS2 expands the playing field considerably. Organisations in ICT, transport, food, healthcare, energy and digital infrastructure, among others, are now covered by the obligation. Suppliers of critical services are also included.<\/p>\n

The goal? A harmonised European level of cybersecurity, with tougher requirements on risk management, incident response, business continuity and reporting.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

What does this mean concretely for your organisation?<\/h3>\n

If you fall under NIS2, you are required to:<\/p>\n

Identify and assess cyber risks<\/p>\n

Take appropriate technical and organisational measures<\/p>\n

Report incidents within 24 hours<\/p>\n

Conduct regular audits, tests and assessments<\/p>\n

Embed responsibility at board level<\/p>\n

These obligations also apply to medium-sized enterprises (more than 50 FTEs or \u20ac10 million turnover) in relevant sectors. So there are many organisations that will soon be covered by the law, even though they do not expect it now.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n
