What is the NIS2 Directive?
The NIS2 Directive expands the scope of the original NIS Directive to cover a broader range of essential services, including energy, transport, banking, healthcare, and digital infrastructure. It mandates improved cybersecurity measures, incident reporting, and collaboration between EU Member States. Member States have until October 17, 2024 to transpose its measures into law, with enforcement beginning on January 17, 2025. We share related information on the Digital Operations Resilience Act (DORA) compliance here.
