As you may have heard, NIS2 directive is making waves in the cybersecurity realm. Wondering how it impacts your business and how ITAF fits into the equation?
Decoding NIS2
NIS2, or Network and Information Security v2, is a European directive aimed at enhancing cybersecurity across various sectors in member states.
NIS2 is the successor of the original NIS Directive released in 2016.
It focuses on improving the resilience of critical sectors such as Energy, Transport, Health, Banking, and Digital infrastructure, while also encouraging broader implementation of stringent security measures across various industries. It’s not just for tech experts—it affects every business.
The directive mandates companies, particularly those deemed critical, to engage in supply chain risk management and adhere to specific cybersecurity requirements aimed at preventing cyberattacks and mitigating their impact.
Compliance with NIS2 involves
- conducting risk assessments,
- implementing incident response plans,
- providing cybersecurity training for employees,
- maintaining asset inventories,
- and adopting measures such as encryption and multi-factor authentication.
NIS2 is scheduled to take effect by October 2024, by which time all EU member states are expected to have incorporated its provisions into their national legislation.
