The European Union has taken a significant step towards fortifying cybersecurity across the bloc by introducing the second version of its Network and Information Systems Directive, or NIS 2 (aka NIS2). This updated legislation expands upon the original NIS Directive, aiming to create a more robust and unified approach to cyber defense.
NIS 2 applies to a broader range of organisations, mandates stricter security measures, and emphasizes improved incident reporting and information sharing. Understanding your obligations under NIS 2 and taking proactive steps towards compliance is crucial for any business operating within the European Union.
