1). COMPLIANCE: NIS2 – The new NIS2 or Network and Information Security directive came into force back in January 2023 but will become effective as national legislation by all EU member states by 17th October this year (2024) The NIS2 Directive will have huge impact for a wide arrange of organisations including Small & Medium Sized Enterprises. CYBERInsights aims to be the “Go to” resource for all legislation that has repercussions for the European SME – to that end we have compiled a series of Special Features addressing all relevant compliance including NIS2 

2). CYBER AWARENESS: Bridging the Knowledge Gap – It is universally accepted that there is a huge Cybersecurity Knowledge & Skills Gap throughout Europe & the UK and of course the Small Business is no exception. You set up your new business and suddenly find a myriad of Threat Actors queuing up to hack your systems and steal you valuable data or even more prevalent you are locked out of your systems because you have become the victim of a Ransomware Attack. The European SME must increase their Cybersecurity Awareness …

3). WHAT IS GDPR? – Unlocking GDPR: To assist our readers navigate the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation ) Minefield we have complied  –  GDPR for SMEs – A Comprehensive Guide to Data Protection Regulations. The General Data Protection Regulation ( GDPR ) is a data privacy regulation from Europe that grants rights to individuals in the EU/EEA over how their personal information gets processed, irrespective of whether the processing occurs online or offline.
