NIS2: The New EU Cybersecurity Directive Explained

🎙️ Host: Sean, Director & Founder of Nemstar, an Information Security Specialist Company in Belfast, UK.

🚀 Episode Summary:
The NIS2 Directive is here, and it’s bigger, broader, and stricter than previous cybersecurity regulations. If you’re thinking, “It doesn’t apply to me,” think again. Whether you’re a European business, a supplier to the EU, or even a supplier to a supplier—you may be impacted.

In this session, we break down:
1️⃣ What NIS2 is – How it differs from ISO 27001 and previous regulations.
2️⃣ Who it applies to – Essential vs. important sectors (hint: it’s more than you think).
3️⃣ How to get compliant – The steps you need to take to avoid fines and disruptions.

💡 Key Takeaways:
✔️ NIS2 goes beyond traditional cybersecurity standards – This isn’t just another ISO 27001 checklist.
✔️ It applies to businesses worldwide – If you’re in the supply chain of an EU-based company, this could affect you.
✔️ Governance & reporting are key – NIS2 mandates board-level involvement, SOC implementation, and stricter incident reporting.
