Cyberattacks on industrial facilities are growing in frequency and sophistication, often leading to serious disruption and expensive shutdowns.
Interconnected systems come with new threats

Many control and automation systems were developed before cyber threats were a concern, and they often include components that don’t allow for security updates or use insecure communication protocols.

As reliance on interconnected technology grows, so does the vulnerability to cyber threats. Besides technological vulnerabilities, human error can be a critical weak spot.

Frequently asked questions about the EU NIS Directive implementation

NIS2 is the latest EU legislation on cybersecurity, which updates the previous NIS Directive. The aim of NIS2 is to enhance OT security, simplify reporting and create consistent rules and penalties.

By expanding its scope, NIS2 requires more businesses and sectors to continually review and improve their cybersecurity measures, providing increased assurance and minimising risk of security incidents threatening operational, financial and reputational damage.

Organisations must demonstrate tested methodologies for:

  • Risk analysis
  • Business continuity
  • Supply chain security
  • Incident reporting
  • Cyber training and hygiene

By 17 October 2024, all EU Member States are required to adopt and publish the national measures necessary to ensure compliance with the Directive.

In addition to water, energy and transport sectors, NIS2 now also applies to manufacturing, chemicals, waste management and food production amongst others, and enhances the requirements on those already included within the original NIS Directive.

Failure to comply can result in penalties of up to 2% of your company's global revenue.

Yes, companies outside the EU must comply with the NIS2 Directive if they provide services within the EU or operate in sectors covered by NIS2. This means even non-EU organisations need to meet NIS2 cybersecurity requirements to ensure their measures align with EU standards.

It is estimated that at least 100,000 companies outside of the European Union need to be compliant with NIS2.

Identify your sector, assess your company size and geographical scope. For example, if you have more than 50 employees and an annual revenue of more than 10 million euros, your company may have to update their cybersecurity measures to do business in sectors covered by the Directive.
