Through NIS2, the European regulator is requiring critical players and organisations with a systemic position to strengthen the security measures of their information systems.

The new version of the directive is intended to be more demanding. It also applies to more players, in different sectors and of varying sizes. In view of the entry into force of these new requirements, the organisations concerned need to prepare themselves.

EBRC, through its expertise in the management of sensitive data, security and resilience, is supporting the companies and organisations concerned to meet these challenges.

In 2016, with the first NIS Directive, the European Union introduced a set of rules aimed at ensuring a common high level of cybersecurity throughout its territory. In particular, the aim was to protect against incidents affecting systemic players, which could have major repercussions at EU level.

The new requirements mainly concerned players identified in each Member State as operators of essential services in certain sectors considered vital, such as energy, transport, water, banking, financial market infrastructures, healthcare and digital infrastructures.
