NIS-2 in Practice

NIS-2 – the Directive on Network and Information System Security – is a pivotal step by the European Union to enhance cybersecurity across various sectors. Similar to DORA in the financial sector, NIS-2 aims to improve the resilience and security of companies and institutions in critical sectors. It serves to protect essential infrastructures against cyber threats and incidents.
