Navigating the NIS2 Directive With Onapsis
Navigating the NIS2 Directive With Onapsis
The European Union’s cybersecurity landscape is set to change dramatically starting in October 2024, when the NIS2 Directive officially takes effect. As a stronger and more comprehensive successor to the original 2016 NIS Directive, NIS2 aims to enhance the security and resilience of both the public and private sectors by introducing stricter cybersecurity regulations, incident reporting requirements, and substantial fines for non-compliance.
Key Changes and Requirements
NIS2 expands its scope to cover more critical sectors, including healthcare, food production, manufacturing, and digital services, many of which rely on business-critical applications like SAP. The directive introduces several key requirements that these organizations must adhere to, including:
- Supply Chain Security: Companies are now responsible for ensuring the security of their entire supply chain, including third-party software and vendors.
- Incident Reporting: Stricter and more rapid incident reporting protocols are mandated, requiring organizations to report significant incidents within 24 hours.
- Enhanced Security Measures: The directive calls for comprehensive risk management, security audits, and continuous monitoring to protect critical systems.
These new regulations make it essential to gain complete visibility into your business-critical applications. As the only application security and compliance platform in the SAP Endorsed Apps Program, Onapsis provides the solution needed to navigate these new requirements with confidence.
Proactively Ensure Compliance
Ignoring these new mandates can lead to significant penalties. With the average cost of a data breach at $4.45 million, and 64% of ERP systems breached in the last 24 months, the risk is real. The Onapsis Platform helps organizations proactively address these challenges by providing the specialized security needed for continuous monitoring, risk assessments, and streamlined audit processes to ensure compliance with NIS2 and other global regulations.
