The European Union’s Network and Information Security Directive 2 (NIS 2) is arguably the most important cyber resilience regulation in the world. NIS2 requires operators of critical infrastructure in 19 different industries ranging from healthcare and public services to utilities and manufacturing to implement appropriate security measures and report any incident to the relevant authorities. 
The Directive addresses the security of supply chains, streamlines reporting obligations, and introduces more stringent supervisory measures and strict penalties. By October 17, the European Union’s 27 Member States are expected to transpose the NIS2 Directive into applicable, national laws. 
A critical cybersecurity strategy aimed at complying with NIS 2 and increasing cyber resilience must include the protection of sensitive data, as well as identities, access, applications, and systems essential for its operations. In this webinar we will cover:
- How the NIS 2 expands the scope and security requirements for cyber resilience.
- The impact of NIS 2 on cloud services and their customers.
- How application, data and identity security are key to compliance.
- How to organizations can simplify compliance with NIS 2 and other regulations with Thales.
