The NIS2 Directive aims to modernize European cybersecurity and build a high common level of resilience across all member states. It expands the scope of accountability to include sectors of high criticality such as energy, health, and digital infrastructure, alongside other critical sectors such as food and manufacturing. Organizations must now implement proactive risk management, information system security policies, and basic cyber hygiene to mitigate threats before they disrupt societal or economic functions. The NIS2 Directive mandates a strict, coordinated incident response, requiring entities to report significant disruptions within 24 hours with details added within 72 hours.
