What is the NIS2 Directive and DORA?

The NIS2 Directive is a new European Union regulation that aims to enhance the resilience and security of information systems in critical sectors such as energy, transportation, health, finance, and digital infrastructures. It replaces the earlier 2016 NIS Directive, introducing more stringent requirements and extending the scope of regulation to more entities. European Union member states are required to implement NIS2 provisions into national law by October 17, 2024.

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is an EU regulation aimed at ensuring the financial sector is resilient against digital disruptions and cyber threats. It establishes a common framework across all EU member states for managing risks associated with information and communication technology (ICT). DORA applies directly to financial institutions like banks, insurance companies, investment firms, and ICT service providers, ensuring they can withstand, recover from, and adapt to ICT-related incidents.

These regulations are part of the EU's effort to standardize and strengthen digital operational resilience within the financial ecosystem and critical infrastructure sectors.

The increasing complexity of compliance with the NIS2 Directive and DORA Regulation presents significant challenges for organizations across the EU. Matrix42 helps you address these challenges with confidence by offering solutions that simplify compliance and ensure your business remains secure and operationally resilient.
