A high common level of cybersecurity – NIS2

Cyber-attacks and cybercrime continue to rise worldwide. The EU is planning to increase its cyber-resilience by updating the Network and Information Security (NIS) Directive. The expansion of the scope to be covered by the proposed NIS2 directive, obliging more entities and sectors to take consistent measures, would help increase the level of cybersecurity in Europe in the longer term. The European Parliament is due to vote in plenary in November on the agreement reached in interinstitutional negotiations.
