Bottom line: The IHK Regensburg emphasizes that NIS2 compliance and cybercrime prevention are closely intertwined and require a strengthened governance role for management.
The Chamber of Industry and Commerce Regensburg has placed cybercrime and the requirements of the NIS2 Directive at the center of attention. CISOs and security officers must engage more intensively with both topics.
The IHK Regensburg has held an event on cybercrime and the implementation of the NIS2 Directive. NIS2 significantly expands the requirements for operators of critical infrastructure and other sectors – from extended reporting obligations and governance structures to risk management documentation.
For organizations in Bavaria and the region, this concretely means: Management and supervisory boards must be more closely involved in cybersecurity. The Directive requires functional incident response management, regular security audits, and demonstrable compliance documentation. Those affected are not only classical critical infrastructures, but also digital service providers and other business sectors.
The parallel threat of cybercrime makes prompt action necessary: phishing, ransomware, and data loss are part of the daily risk spectrum. CISOs must therefore keep both regulatory requirements and operational security in view and communicate this credibly to executive management.
