NIS2 Directive:
|
The NIS2 Directive is currently in the spotlight. With this directive, the European Parliament will ensure minimum security requirements for essential and important social entities. Is your organisation an essential or important entity, or do you do business with one? Then it is time to take a close look at your security policy. The exact guidelines will not be announced until 17 October 2024. What can you do right now to prepare for NIS2?
