The NIS2 Directive establishes a common cybersecurity model in the EU, requiring member states to identify and classify risks.

Introduction

The NIS2 Directive is one of the European Union's most ambitious initiatives to harmonize and strengthen cybersecurity. It mandates member states to establish a unified cybersecurity governance model.

Pan-European Registry

A key aspect of the NIS2 Directive is the creation of a pan-European registry for identifying and classifying risks. This will enhance transparency and enable member states to respond more effectively to cyber threats.

Registration and Reporting Requirements

The NIS2 Directive sets forth specific requirements for registration and reporting. Organizations are obligated to report significant incidents affecting the security of their networks and information systems to the competent authorities.

Conclusion

The NIS2 Directive represents a significant step towards a unified cybersecurity strategy in the EU, protecting not only the security of member states but also that of their citizens.
