What is NIS2 Compliance Guide?
The NIS2 Directive (Network and Information Security Directive 2) is an EU-wide cybersecurity regulation that establishes a high common level of cybersecurity across the European Union, replacing and expanding the original NIS Directive.
Your Complete Guide to NIS2 Compliance
NIS2 significantly expands cybersecurity requirements across the EU. It applies to essential and important entities in energy, transport, health, digital infrastructure, ICT service management, public administration, and many more sectors. Non-compliance penalties reach up to 10 million euros or 2% of global annual turnover.
The directive requires comprehensive cybersecurity measures including risk management policies, incident handling with 24-hour reporting, business continuity planning, supply chain security, vulnerability management, and management accountability for cybersecurity.
Opsio helps organisations assess their NIS2 readiness, identify compliance gaps, implement required controls, and establish ongoing monitoring. Our cloud security expertise ensures that NIS2 requirements are met across AWS, Azure, and GCP environments with automated compliance evidence generation.
