With the expiry of July 31, 2024, a critical registration deadline ends for operators of essential entities and important entities under the NIS2 Directive. Around 29,000 companies in Germany are affected by this deadline and must complete their registration with the competent authorities.
The NIS2 Directive establishes enhanced cybersecurity requirements and obligates affected organizations to align their systems and processes accordingly. Registration is the formal step by which companies document their classification as essential entities and thereby define their compliance obligations.
