With NIS2 compliance deadlines approaching and a growing legal spotlight on cybersecurity across financial services and critical infrastructure, what’s ahead and where might Irish organisations be falling behind.? One person who has a deep knowledge of NIS2 is Dr. Deirdre Leahy, a lecturer in the Law of Cybercrime and Digital Forensics at MTU, and an Irish-qualified solicitor with deep expertise in digital regulation, online consumer protection, and cyber incident law. I recently caught up with Dr Leahy.
Dr Leahy talks about her background, academia, NIS2, poor cyber hygiene, the governance aspect of NIS2 and more.
More about NIS2:
The NIS2 Directive is the EU-wide legislation on cybersecurity which updates the 2016 NIS Directive . It was introduced to strengthen and harmonise cybersecurity across the European Union, and to keep-up with increased digitisation and an evolving cybersecurity threat landscape.
Building on measures introduced in the 2016 legislation, and expanding the scope of the cybersecurity rules to new sectors and entities further improves the resilience and incident response capacities of public and private entities, competent authorities, and the EU as a whole.
