The impact of legislation and regulations on technology companies is increasing rapidly. With the European NIS2 Directive already in force and the arrival of the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) in 2027, the playing field in which you operate is changing. These developments affect not only compliance and risk management but also have a direct influence on product development, supply chain collaboration, and your position in the market.
During this members' meeting, we bring together the most important developments. You will gain insight into the impact of NIS2 and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) on your organization and your products. We will show how other companies deal with this in practice and the challenges they face.
Moreover, you gain insight into the importance of securely storing cryptographic keys. This strengthens the continuity of products and processes while simultaneously meeting the requirements of the CRA.
In addition, you will discover how to make your organization resilient against cyber threats, the role the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) plays, and what is expected of you during incidents. We also zoom in on what happens when things really go wrong: from a system failure to effectively responding to a cyber incident.
Finally, you will gain insight into the role of insurers and regulators. When are you insurable? How is liability changing? And what will supervision look like in the future?
We share knowledge, experiences, and perspectives so that you are better prepared for what is to come. In this way, we help you not only to comply with the rules but also to deploy them strategically.
