The EU has updated the Network and Information Systems Directive (NIS) to address evolving cybersecurity issues. Operators of Essential Services in EU states will need to comply with enhanced cybersecurity and incident reporting requirements. Imprivata provides an overarching proactive framework of security and preparedness to help organisations comply with NIS2. Their identity access management (IAM) solutions can help organisations classified under NIS2 as either in an essential or important industry as well as suppliers to these types of organisations. It is crucial to review IAM strategy before the October 2024 NIS2 deadline to avoid fines, penalties, and reputational damage.
