Who is affected by the NIS2 directive?
The NIS2 Directive, enforced in January 2023, impacts a wide range of entities, including medium and large enterprises in critical infrastructure and essential service sectors across the EU. NIS2 builds on the original NIS Directive by encompassing more sectors, imposing stricter security requirements, and enhancing incident reporting obligations.
NIS2 focuses on Governance, Cyber Security Risk Management, and Reporting. It emerged from the recognized need to further strengthen cybersecurity resilience and joint crisis response among Member States and businesses. The directive aims to ensure a higher level of protection for critical infrastructure and essential services, fostering a better understanding of main threats and challenges while making resilience more consistent among EU members.
Non-compliance penalties
The NIS2 Directive sets out specific penalties for non-compliance:
- Monetary fines:
- For essential entities up to €10 million or 2% of total turnover
- For important entities up to €7 million or 1.4% of total turnover
- Regulators may suspend business operations if necessary for network security
- Non-monetary remedies: compliance orders, binding instructions, security audit implementation orders, threat notification orders to entities’ customers.
- Administrative fines
- Criminal sanctions including criminal sanctions for C-level management (personal liability) if gross negligence is proven after a cyber incident
Non-compliance can seriously impact your business.
Compliance fortifies your security posture and builds trust within your customers and partners.
