In the ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape, the European Union’s Network and Information Systems Directive (NIS-2) marks a pivotal step for organizations that rely on digital infrastructure to provide essential services. This update expands the directive’s reach to cover more sectors, enforce stricter security measures, and bolster Europe’s resilience against cyber threats.

Our latest whitepaper, "Navigating the NIS-2 Directive with SureCloud's Integrated GRC Platform," is your guide to understanding, preparing for, and achieving compliance with NIS-2. Here's a preview of the insights you’ll gain and how SureCloud can help ensure your business remains secure and compliant.

Why NIS-2 Matters More Than Ever

NIS-2 introduces robust security standards and applies to a wider range of organizations than the original NIS directive. In addition to entities like energy providers, financial institutions, and digital infrastructure providers, NIS-2 now includes medium and large businesses across sectors like transport, manufacturing, and healthcare. Non-compliance carries significant penalties, with fines reaching up to €10 million or 2% of annual revenue.

Key requirements under NIS-2 include:

• Incident Notification: Entities must report incidents within 24 hours and provide a detailed report within 72 hours, ensuring rapid response and communication with authorities.

• Enhanced Accountability: Senior management is now responsible for overseeing cybersecurity and ensuring that all necessary controls are in place.

• Third-Party Risk Management: With an increased focus on securing supply chains, NIS-2 requires clear oversight of all third-party risks, requiring organizations to vet and monitor their suppliers’ cybersecurity posture​.
