NIS 2
What is NIS 2?
NIS 2 (Network and Information Security Directive 2) is the European directive to strengthen the cybersecurity of network and information systems. It builds on the protection for particularly important facilities in the EU and creates a more uniform framework for greater cyber resilience.
What is the goal of NIS 2?
The goal of NIS 2 is to better protect companies and organizations against cyberattacks. To achieve this, the directive calls for effective risk management, technical and organizational security measures, clear reporting obligations for significant security incidents, and stronger accountability of management.
What does this mean for the field of electrically driven vehicles and machines?
For companies in the field of electrically driven vehicles and machines, NIS 2 becomes particularly important when
they fall under one of the affected sectors or must meet relevant requirements as part of critical/important supply chains.
In practice, this means that networks, production systems, and IT structures must be better protected, incidents must be detected more quickly, and they must be reported within defined deadlines.
For customers, this brings greater reliability, better protection of sensitive data, and more robust supply chains. At the same time, NIS 2 promotes more uniform security standards across Europe, thereby strengthening trust in digital and industrial systems.
