This book dives into the evolving world of cybersecurity regulations within the European Union, focusing on two key directives: the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) and the Directive on Security of Network and Information Systems (NIS 2).
DORA: Safeguarding the Financial Sector
DORA takes aim at strengthening the cybersecurity posture of the financial industry. It mandates stricter risk management practices for financial institutions, demanding they identify and address vulnerabilities in their IT systems. The book unpacks these requirements, explaining how institutions can develop robust incident response plans and ensure supply chain security.
NIS 2: Broadening the Cybersecurity Net
NIS 2 significantly expands the scope of the original NIS directive. It casts a wider net, encompassing essential and important entities across various sectors, including energy, transportation, waste management, and healthcare. The book delves into the specific cybersecurity obligations imposed on these entities by NIS 2. This includes measures for risk assessment, incident reporting, and information sharing, all crucial for building collective resilience against cyber threats.
Risk Management: The Cornerstone of Cybersecurity
The book emphasizes the importance of risk management as the foundation for both DORA and NIS 2 compliance. It explores various risk management frameworks that organizations can adopt to systematically identify, assess, and mitigate cybersecurity risks. The book equips readers with the knowledge to develop risk management plans tailored to their specific industry and risk profile.
