NIS2 Simplified:
In 2023, the European Union introduced the revised NIS Directive - NIS2 - to enhance network and system security across the EU and reduce the impact of cyber-attacks on society and the economy. NIS2 introduces stricter rules than its predecessor, including measures for cybersecurity risk management and incident reporting obligations.
Organisations that fall under the new NIS2 guidelines must comply with the new standard by October 17, 2024, emphasising the need to prepare for NIS2 Compliance promptly.
Who needs to take action for NIS2 Compliance?
The NIS2 Directive applies to specific sectors, including energy, transport, banking, and more. To comply with the directive your organisation must have at least 50 employees or an annual turnover of £8.7 million.
There are two categories of entities:
Category 1: Entities with a minimum of 250 employees and/or an annual turnover of £43 million and/or an annual balance sheet total of £36 million are regarded as "essential" and will face stricter supervision and enforcement.
Category 2: Entities with at least 50 employees and/or an annual turnover of £8.7 million are regarded as "important".
It's important to identify early on if your organisation falls under NIS2 and its entity classification. Take action now to ensure compliance with the NIS2 Directive.
Exploring the Key Themes of NIS2
Risk ownership
The board's role is critical in ensuring compliance with risk management requirements. They must approve cybersecurity measures and oversee implementation, or risk personal
liability.
Security requirements
Article 21 of the NIS2 Directive outlines essential cybersecurity measures to protect your network and information systems, including incident handling, business continuity and crisis management.
Supply chain security
For organisations under the NIS2 Directive, supply chain security is crucial. This involves identifying vulnerabilities in vendors and service providers and evaluating their products and cybersecurity practices.
Incident Reporting
Essential entities must report significant incidents to the government's CSIRT within 24 hours and report the incident within 72 hours.
How to prepare for NIS2?
If your organisation falls under the NIS2 directive, it’s crucial to start preparations early as the implementation process can be time consuming.
