If your organization is likely to be classified as either an essential or important entity by the NIS2 Directive, it’s crucial to start preparing for compliance now, even amidst the prevailing uncertainties.

What are the key dates for the NIS2 Directive?

October 2024

Member States must have adopted the NIS2 Directive into national law. This will finalize the requirements and responsibilities your organization will need to adhere to.

April 2025

Member States are required to publish lists of essential and important entities. This will provide some clarity on whether your organization falls under the purview of the NIS2 Directive.

Why start preparing now?

While it might be tempting to wait for these official updates, standing by until April 2025 to begin preparations could leave your organization scrambling to meet NIS2 compliance requirements. Starting now allows you to proactively assess and enhance your data security measures, ensuring a smoother transition when the guidelines are fully defined.

What businesses should expect and the steps to take.

What’s next? 

Preparation is key to navigating the complexities of NIS2 compliance. By starting now, you can mitigate risks, ensure data security, and position your organization to meet the upcoming requirements efficiently. Don’t delay – stay informed about the latest updates and utilize available resources to bolster your readiness.
