Get ready.
Compliance has changed. So have we.
NIS2 raises the cybersecurity bar for organisations providing important and essential services across the EU. We help Irish organisations understand whether they are in scope, identify gaps and build a practical roadmap toward compliance and cyber resilience.
Cybersecurity is now a business governance issue.
NIS2 is the EU's second Network and Information Systems Directive. It establishes a common cybersecurity framework intended to strengthen resilience across critical and important sectors.
For organisations in scope, the focus goes beyond buying security technology. NIS2 addresses risk management, governance, incident handling, business continuity, supply-chain security, vulnerability management, cyber hygiene, training, authentication and the effectiveness of security measures.
It reaches far beyond traditional critical infrastructure.
Scope depends on factors including the service provided, sector, organisation size and specific statutory rules. Medium and large entities in covered sectors are a key focus, while certain entity types can be captured regardless of size.
Do not assume you are out of scope because you are an SME. Special rules and supply-chain requirements can still matter. A proper scope assessment should be the first step.
Compliance is only part of the business case.
Reduce operational risk
Lower the likelihood and business impact of ransomware, outages, compromised accounts and supplier-related incidents.
Meet governance obligations
Give boards and management a defensible framework for cybersecurity oversight, accountability and decision-making.
Build trust & competitive advantage
Demonstrate to clients, partners and regulators that your organisation takes cyber resilience seriously.
Eight control areas that define your obligations.
NIS2 requires organisations to implement appropriate and proportionate technical, operational and organisational measures across these areas.
Governance & accountability
Management ownership, policies and measurable oversight.
Cyber risk management
Identify critical assets, risks, vulnerabilities and appropriate safeguards.
Incident response
Prepare to detect, manage, escalate and report significant incidents.
Business continuity
Backups, disaster recovery and crisis management that can actually be tested.
Supply-chain security
Assess security risks created by suppliers and service providers.
Access & authentication
Strong access control, MFA, encryption and appropriate authentication.
Security awareness
Cyber hygiene and training for staff and management.
Continuous improvement
Assess whether controls work and improve them as risks change.
