Key implications of the NIS 2 Directive: increased liability risk for management and broader scope
The revision of the NIS Directive (EU) 2016/1148 ("NIS 1") was published on 27 December 2022 in the form of Directive (EU) 2022/2555 ("NIS 2") and entered into force on 16 January 2023. NIS 2 is the Commission's response to Member States' inconsistent and fragmented implementation of NIS 1. The revision of this first EU-wide cybersecurity legislation will mean significant and far-reaching changes for companies in "critical" sectors.
After numerous joint projects and events on current topics in the field of technology regulation, Schoenherr, in collaboration with the University of Vienna, has created the public-law and transdisciplinary "thinktank technologylegal - building the future".
