The EU cybersecurity framework has expanded significantly since the first Directive on measures for a high common level of cybersecurity across the EU (NIS) was adopted in 2016.
While the initiatives are intended to complement each other, certain sectors may need to navigate several of them. For example, the security of telecoms networks and services is regulated under the NIS2 Directive. However, telecoms operators should also consider specific requirements for 5G following the implementation of the 5G risk management toolbox.
Cullen International published a cheat sheet outlining how the various EU cybersecurity initiatives adopted thus far work together to strengthen the security and resilience of critical sectors at EU level.
