NIS2 COMPLIANCE AUDIT
NIS2 audit: see if you meet the new duties of an essential or important entity
A compliance audit against the NIS2 directive and its national implementation. We assess risk management measures, reporting duties and management accountability, pointing out gaps before the requirements take effect.
WHY IT MATTERS
NIS2 covers far more companies than before and puts the duty directly on management
NIS2 extends cybersecurity obligations to a broad set of sectors and places personal accountability on management. Many companies do not realize the new requirements apply to them at all.
The audit starts by establishing whether, and as what kind of entity, you fall under NIS2, then assesses whether you meet the required risk management measures and reporting duties. We show gaps before they become the subject of an inspection.
WHAT WE CHECK
The full scope of NIS2 duties
We tailor the scope to the sector and the national NIS2 implementation relevant to your organization.
OUR APPROACH
We translate the regulation into concrete, achievable actions
NIS2 speaks of appropriate measures but gives no ready-made list. Our role is to translate the general requirements into concrete controls that genuinely reduce risk and at the same time meet the letter of the regulation.
The work is done by people who test controls in practice every day. That is why the recommendations are not a wish list but actions that will really make an attack harder and stand up to an inspection.
NIS2 SCOPE
From entity classification to technical measures
The audit covers the duties the NIS2 directive places on essential and important entities.
STANDARDS & CERTIFICATIONS
We work to recognized methodologies, not gut feeling
Every project is run by certified pentesters and based on public standards. That makes the result repeatable, auditable and comparable across vendors.
We share the full list of certifications and standards on request, together with a sample test scope.
HOW WE DO IT
An audit run in stages
EVIDENCE
Numbers behind every promise
Every test is run by certified pentesters, and we document the result with reproduction steps, evidence and a verified remediation path. Proof, not a promise.
KNOWLEDGE
A NIS2 compliance audit in practice
What NIS2 is and who it covers
NIS2 is the EU directive raising the level of cybersecurity in essential and important sectors of the economy. It covers a much wider set of entities than its predecessor, including many service providers that were not previously regulated.
It requires risk management measures, incident reporting and attention to supply chain security. The first step is often to establish whether, and as what kind of entity, you fall under the directive at all.
What we check in a NIS2 audit
We verify risk management measures, the incident handling and reporting process, supply chain security and business continuity. We assess whether they are genuinely implemented, not merely described in a policy.
We pay particular attention to areas where NIS2 goes further than current practice, such as supplier oversight or reporting within set deadlines. That is where gaps most often arise.
Penalties and management accountability
NIS2 explicitly ties security to the accountability of senior management, and non-compliance carries severe sanctions. That moves the topic from the IT department to the level of board decisions.
So we prepare the report to be useful also for non-technical people responsible for compliance. The board needs to understand where the risk sits and which decision reduces it.
What you get and when to start
You get a gap analysis against NIS2 requirements and an action plan ordered by risk and implementation effort. We indicate what to do first to quickly reduce the greatest risk.
It is best not to wait with the audit, because some requirements, such as supplier oversight, take time and cooperation with other entities. The earlier you start, the more calmly you reach compliance.
