About This Session
If your organisation has recently been classified as an “essential” or “important” entity under NIS2, what happens next?
Your classification reflects the important role your organisation plays in the EU’s digital and economic ecosystem, but that recognition also comes with real obligations and not much time to figure them out. Both essential and important entities face meaningful requirements under NIS2, although the level of supervision and enforcement differs.
Designed for organisations new to NIS2, this practical 30-minute webinar will explain what your classification actually means, why your organisation has been brought into scope and what regulators will expect from you over the next 18 months.
We’ll walk through the practical first steps — from governance and risk management to incident reporting — so you can move from “we just found out” to “we have a plan,” whichever category you fall into.
In this session, we will explore:
- What it means to be classified "essential" or "important" under NIS2 and why your organisation is now in scope
- How the two designations differ in practice: supervision, enforcement and obligations
- The practical implications for governance, risk management and incident reporting and resilience common to both categories
- What the next 18 months actually look like: key milestones you need to know
- The most common first mistakes newly in-scope organisations make — and how to avoid them
- A clear, realistic starting point for building compliance without derailing your business
