Network and Information Security Directive

The Network and Information Security (NIS) Directive is a European Union law aimed at enhancing cybersecurity across member countries. It requires essential services, like healthcare and energy, and digital service providers, such as online platforms, to improve their protection against cyber threats. Organizations must prevent and respond to incidents, report breaches, and collaborate with national authorities. By setting these standards, the NIS Directive seeks to ensure a high level of security for networks and information systems, ultimately protecting the public from the impact of cyber attacks.
