Navigating cybersecurity compliance
Our country-by-country guide to the EU NIS2 Directive
The NIS2 Directive, also known as the new version of the Network and Information Security Directive, is a European directive aimed at strengthening cybersecurity across the European Union (EU). The directive is designed to help organizations protect themselves against cyber threats and to ensure that the EU’s critical infrastructure is more secure and robust.
EU member states must implement the NIS2 into national law by 17 October 2024 – setting a new standard in light of its extraterritorial reach and personal liability of management bodies.
In this guide, we take you through the current implementation status for each member state and what you should be on the lookout for.
