NIS2 Directive Foundation Certification Exam

The NIS2 Directive establishes a unified legal framework to uphold cybersecurity in 18 critical sectors across the EU. It is designed to enhance cybersecurity across the European Union by establishing a high common level of security for network and information systems.

National authorities are given greater enforcement powers, and the ability to impose significant fines for non-compliance.
