Is Your Organization Ready for the NIS 2 Compliance Deadline?

Cybersecurity Assessments

If you’ve not yet heard, the NIS2 Directive—an increasingly critical cybersecurity regulation for organizations across the EU—is set to go into effect on October 17th. That means that Member States must adopt and publish the necessary cybersecurity measures by October 17, 2024, and apply them from October 18, 2024, onward—so, is your organization ready? 

Let’s back up—is your organization even subject to these requirements?

Though you may not have been under the purview of the original NIS Directive published in 2016, you may want to check again, as the NIS2 has now expanded its scope to cover a broader range of sectors, including digital infrastructure, healthcare, and even certain public administration entities at the central and potentially regional levels.

You’ll need to verify if your organization is subject to the Directive’s stringent cybersecurity requirements. Because, if so, the time to act is now, especially since the NIS 2 has also introduced harsher penalties for non-compliance. 

So where to get started?  

Preparing for NIS2 compliance should begin with a comprehensive assessment of current cybersecurity practices—a step that’ll be particularly critical for organizations like healthcare, digital infrastructure, and public administration that may not have had stringent cybersecurity requirements before.

You can’t move forward until you understand where you currently stand regarding meeting the NIS2’s requirements—which now include stringent risk management, incident handling, and reporting protocols--and Schellman can help you gain that thorough understanding. 

Our team of experts has always remained ahead of the curve when it comes to emerging regulations so that we can be ready to serve our clients, and that’s stayed true amidst the growing swath of new laws in the EU—including the NIS2 Directive.

We’ve already done a deep dive to understand which organizations need to do what in order to comply. So, when you use us to perform a gap assessment against the NIS2 requirements, you’ll not only gain important insight regarding even the most niche areas you still need to strengthen before the deadline, but you’ll also have the added advantage of our expertise in the form of recommendations for improvement and guidance on implementation.  

Don’t let the October 17th deadline for NIS2 Directive compliance sneak up on you. Start your preparation now and leverage a Schellman gap assessment to ensure your organization satisfies these mandates and remains strong and secure against threats. Contact us today to get started!
