The original 2016 NIS Directive aimed to boost cybersecurity across the EU but fell short of addressing modern threats. To strengthen resilience and ensure a high level of security, the 2022 NIS2 Directive introduced stricter security requirements and expanded in-scope organizations with standardized criteria.
Cymulate simplifies NIS2 compliance by breaking down complex mandates and providing a practical, easy-to-follow approach. Cymulate helps accelerate your path to compliance.
NIS2 Non-Compliance
Organizations that fail to comply with NIS2 requirements are subject to legal and financial consequences. These could include administrative fines up to €10 million or 2% of global annual turnover, whichever is higher. Additionally, supervisory authorities may hold executives personally liable.
Why Cymulate for NIS2 Compliance?
By leveraging the Cymulate Exposure Validation Platform, organizations can accelerate their path to adherence, strengthen their overall security posture and reduce the risk of costly non-compliance penalties. Cymulate enables organizations to proactively manage cyber risk, provide audit-ready compliance evidence and continuously improve cyber resilience.
Cymulate empowers your organization to meet the following NIS2 cybersecurity compliance requirements:
Proactive threat cybersecurity
Endpoint device security validation
Automation and artificial intelligence (AI)
Threat prevention and detection
Increased cybersecurity awareness
Risk assessments and vulnerability management
Phishing training and awareness
Because we continuously track our security performance with Cymulate, I always show the platform’s analytics during our compliance audits. They appreciate that I consistently have a third party evaluate my security, which gives them an unbiased perspective. Additionally, I can show them that even if an attack penetrates my defenses, I still have compensating controls to protect the organization.
Deploy the Cymulate Exposure Validation Platform in your environment to continuously test defenses and validate security controls, monitor for cyber drift, and implement automated remediations. Quickly close security gaps and improve prevention and detection before attackers strike.
