Course Overview
Effective January 16, 2023, the NIS 2 Directive (otherwise known as the Directive (EU) 2022/2555) has been established to enhance the security of network and information systems across the European Union. This directive specifically targets critical infrastructure operators and essential service providers, mandating the implementation of robust cybersecurity measures and the prompt reporting of incidents to relevant authorities.
The scope of the NIS 2 Directive is broader, encompassing a wider range of organizations and sectors, while simultaneously strengthening security requirements, simplifying reporting obligations, and imposing more stringent measures and penalties. By adhering to the requirements outlined in the NIS 2 Directive, organizations can enhance their cybersecurity defenses, safeguard critical assets, and actively contribute to building a secure digital environment within the European Union.
