NIS2 in Practice: your clear Guide to OT Compliance

his presentation offers a practical guide for organizations navigating the complexities of the NIS2 Directive, with a specific focus on OT environments. We begin by demystifying the key NIS2 requirements relevant to OT, translating legislative language into operational realities. From there, we explore the core business challenges that organizations face in aligning compliance with resilience, including risk management, supply chain security, and governance obligations. To bridge the gap between regulation and execution, we present a clear, actionable roadmap that security and operations teams can use to implement NIS2 requirements effectively. This roadmap is supported by a technical deep dive into critical enabling technologies such as secure architectural designs, remote access, asset visibility, anomaly detection, and incident response platforms. The session equips attendees with both strategic insight and tactical guidance to drive compliance and enhance security posture in a rapidly evolving threat landscape.
