The NIS2 Directive is a major legislative update passed by the European Union to strengthen cybersecurity across critical and digital infrastructure. Now available in ControlMap, this framework helps MSPs guide their clients through NIS2 compliance using pre-built content, automated workflows, and audit-ready reporting.

What is the NIS2 Directive?

NIS2 (Directive (EU) 2022/2555) establishes baseline cybersecurity and incident reporting obligations for a wide range of essential and important entities across the EU. This includes sectors such as energy, healthcare, finance, digital infrastructure, public administration, and more.

The Directive introduces stricter governance rules, such as board-level accountability, supply chain risk management, mandatory breach reporting within 24 hours, and oversight by national supervisory authorities. It applies to both EU-based companies and those outside the EU that provide services in the EU.

Organizations that fail to comply face penalties, including fines and reputational damage, making proactive compliance support from MSPs more critical than ever.
