The NIS2 Directive has reinforced the importance of operational resilience and risk management for organisations in critical and essential sectors. One of the fundamental pillars to ensure business continuity is the implementation of robust practices of regular testing, continuous monitoring and improvement of recovery processes in the event of an incident. Thus, it is increasingly necessary:
1 – Continuity tests and exercises
NIS2 requires organisations to conduct periodic testing to validate the effectiveness of their incident response plans. Simulations on threats and possible cyber-attack situations, and in turn recovery tests, are essential to ensure that systems and teams are prepared to react quickly to a real situation.
2 – Continuous monitoring and early detection
The ability to identify and respond to threats in real time is crucial. Implementing continuous monitoring mechanisms allows you to anticipate failures, detect anomalous behaviour, and ensure the integrity of critical systems.
3 – Continuous improvement of processes
After each test or incident, reviewing and updating continuity plans is an essential requirement of NIS2. Learning from each experience strengthens organisational resilience and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements.
At BSO Consulting we develop actions to support organisations to ensure alignment with their operational risk management, cybersecurity and business continuity practices, in a way that is oriented to the requirements of the NIS2 Directive, ensuring not only compliance, but also what we understand to be an effective response to an incident situation, always depending on its severity.
