It is a new EU directive for cyber security, designed to strengthen the resilience of companies' computer networks, information systems, applications and software against cyber attacks.
The NIS2 Directive will be implemented in the Czech legal system in 2024 as part of the Cybersecurity Act (ZOKB). Compared to the earlier NIS1 Directive, it covers more entities and expands their obligations.
The NIS2 Directive is expected to be implemented in the Czech legal system in the autumn of 2025 and regulated firms must register with the NCIB within 90 days of its entry into force. Subsequently, firms must ensure full compliance with the legislation.
Failure to comply with NIS2 carries a fine of up to €10 million (or 2% of net turnover) and suspension of executive management for up to 6 months.
The higher duty regime applies to you if you are, for example: a central government body, an administrative authority with national competence, a senate office, a chamber of deputies office, a judicial authority, a public prosecutor's office, a health insurance authority, a county, a municipality with extended competence with at least 125,000 inhabitants.
The following fall under the regime of lower obligations: a territorially decentralised state administration body, a professional chamber, a university, the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, a municipality with extended jurisdiction with a population of up to 125,000.
