About NIS2
The NIS2 Directive is the EU’s updated framework for improving the security of critical entities and services essential to the economy and society. It requires stricter cybersecurity measures, more consistent monitoring of risks, and better reporting of incidents to regulatory authorities.
It applies to both operators of essential services (OES) and important entities (IE) covering sectors such as energy, healthcare, finance, and digital infrastructure. Non-compliance may result in penalties, audits, or operational restrictions.
What does NIS2 require regarding data security?
NIS2 requires organizations to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of sensitive data.
This includes encryption, access controls, cryptographic protection for data at rest and in transit, and lifecycle safeguards like retention and disposal policies.
Security efforts must align with the classification, value, and risks to data assets. Logging, monitoring, and auditing are essential to respond to incidents, prevent exfiltration, and demonstrate compliance efficiently.
