What is the NIS2 directive?

The NIS2 Directive is the European Union’s updated regulatory framework that strengthens cybersecurity requirements for critical sectors such as banking, critical infrastructures, insurers, and their technology providers.

NIS2 mandates strict technical and organizational measures to protect data and ensure operational continuity against evolving cyber threats.

Why is it crucial?

Cyberattacks are increasingly sophisticated and frequent, potentially disrupting critical operations, causing massive data breaches, and triggering heavy financial penalties.

The NIS2 Directive imposes direct responsibilities on senior management, with sanctions for failing to ensure adequate security.
