The NIS2 Directive is set to transform cybersecurity standards for organizations across the EU, and compliance deadlines are fast approaching. For startups and growing businesses aiming for ISO27001, SOC2, or GDPR alignment, understanding the new rules is crucial. SecurelyComply is here to break down what NIS2 means for your security roadmap and how you can prepare.

What is the NIS2 Directive?

NIS2 stands for the second iteration of the Network and Information Security Directive. It strengthens cybersecurity obligations for a wider range of organizations, not just critical infrastructure. Expanded reporting requirements, stricter risk management policies, and higher penalties are key elements. If your business operates in essential or important sectors—including tech, finance, or healthcare—NIS2 likely applies.

Who Needs to Comply and When?

Most mid-sized and large enterprises in EU member states are directly affected by the NIS2 rules. With the compliance deadline drawing near, companies must act fast to meet the obligations. Early preparation helps establish robust controls and avoid the risk of non-compliance penalties. Startups aiming for another compliance standard, like ISO27001 or SOC2, will find parallels and efficiencies when aligning with NIS2.
