The NIS2 Directive, officially Directive (EU) 2022/2555, is the European Union's updated cybersecurity framework, replacing the original NIS Directive. It aims to enhance cybersecurity across the EU by requiring member states to strengthen their cybersecurity capabilities and introduce robust cybersecurity risk management measures, reporting obligations, and collaboration.
