NIS2
27 countries. 17 industries. Atleast
100,000 companies. Fines up to 2% of company turnover.
NIS2 is a European Union (EU) directive aimed at improving
cybersecurity across the EU. It is a revision of the original NIS directive, which was
introduced in 2016. NIS2 is a legal requirement for EU Member States. They have until 18 October
2024 to comply. For those outside, it demands your attention if you intend to do business with
EU organizations.
We'll discuss
- Comparison with previous NIS directive
- How do NIS2 and GDPR overlap
- 2 compliance criteria - Location, size, industry
- 'Essential' and 'important' industries
- Practical difficulties in all-hazards approach

From 27 April, organisations that fall under Danzell must meet a stricter set of requirements
— tighter multi-factor authentication rules, mandatory cloud scoping, and fuller Cyber

need to be is larger than expected.
Our experts will walk you through exactly what's changed, what it means in practice, and the
fastest path to compliance without disrupting how your business operates.
- What the new MFA rules require — and common gaps organisations miss
- How mandatory cloud scoping changes your compliance boundary
- Stricter Cyber Essentials Plus enforcement — what auditors will now look for
In this webinar, you’ll learn:

The new Cyber Essentials v3.3 "Danzell" question set applies to all
assessments created after 27 April 2026. Accounts created before this date have a 6-month grace
period to certify under the previous standard but that window won't last. The sooner you act,
the smoother your certification journey.
