What does NIS2 demand? | ACM Consultants GmbH

What does NIS2 demand?

The introduction of the NIS2 directive brings with it a variety of new obligations and requirements for companies. First of all, companies are required to classify themselves independently in the corresponding sectors ("Specify" institution or “important” institution) and to register with the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI). “Essential” institutions must also participate in the exchange of information via the BSI’s central platform.

The NIS2 Directive also places further demands on the cybersecurity of organizations and companies. For example, companies and organizations have to deal with the topics of cyber risk management, control and monitoring, as well as dealing with incidents and business continuity.

What does that mean in concrete terms?

A NIS2-compliant risk management for information security must be established.
Security incidents must be reported and treated appropriately.
The information security standard in the supply chain must be guaranteed.
Policies and policies for risk management and information security must be created.
Measures for a functioning business continuity management must be developed and implemented.
Key figures must be developed, introduced and monitored.
The ITC resilience (e.g. Cryptography, communication, authentication, ...) must be demonstrably increased.
Cyber awareness in the form of e.g. Employee training must be implemented.

The management of an organization or a company, i.e. managing directors or board members, is responsible for compliance with the NIS2 requirements. All organisations covered by the NIS2 directive must comply with their due diligence obligation. Stricter liability rules will apply to the management of the organisations concerned.
