GDPR & Cybersecurity

The new European directive NIS2 is the successor to NIS (Network and Information Security Directive) and will come into force on 17 October 2024. In this article, we make a list of the important elements to take into account when implementing NIS2.

We take a closer look at some of the measures and procedures that the European NIS2 Directive requires as a minimum to reduce your organisation's vulnerability and increase its resilience to cyber-attacks (and avoid penalties).

In December 2022, the European Parliament adopted the NIS2 Directive on the security of network and information systems to ensure a higher level of cybersecurity in the EU. It is now up to Belgium to introduce new legislation to replace the existing NIS law by 17 October 2024.
