Given the emergence of AI over the past year or so, the introduction of the European Union NIS2 Directive in late 2024 was not a moment too soon. Just like in the latest installment of Mission: Impossible The Final Reckoning, IT teams are now having to deal with their own “mini-Entity” as they attempt to stay ahead of hackers.

In fact, one could argue that the original Network and Information Security (NIS) Directive was already somewhat out of date when it became effective in 2018 in that it only applied to limited types of organizations and left too many implementation details to individual member states. These among many other shortfalls.

The NIS2 Directive, currently be implemented across EU member states will impose stricter requirements on cybersecurity practices, asset visibility, and risk management. This will take on higher urgency at the network perimeter, where IT resources are in the greatest state of flux.

Currently, as of May 2025 nine member states have fully transposed the NIS2 Directive into national laws for their countries. The heat is on for the remaining 18 to get it done sooner rather than later. Regardless of which country (or countries) your organizations reside, it’s time to begin thinking right now about how you will comply to avoid potential fines.
