NIS2 affects approximately 30,000 German companies and requires CISOs to implement new governance, risk management systems, and incident reporting obligations.
Starting in 2025, 30,000 companies must implement NIS2 and DORA requirements, forcing CISOs to review their governance, incident management, and third-party dependency management.
NIS2 makes cybersecurity a leadership responsibility at board level, not just an IT matter — CISOs must operate more strategically and work closer to senior management in the future.
NIS2 makes board members personally liable for cybersecurity and requires annual management documentation – CISOs must establish formal compliance evidence.
Approximately 29,500 German companies must adapt their cybersecurity to NIS2 requirements and conduct systematic compliance planning within a compressed timeline.
