On Wednesday 11 December (14.30-16.00) techUK will be hosting the team from the Department for Science Innovation and Technology that is leading on the Cyber Security and Resilience (CSR) Bill for a discussion with members specifically on their experiences of, and reflections on, the EU's NIS 2 Directive.
This feedback will be useful to the DSIT team as they continue to shape the CSR Bill's proposed measures - a key aspect of which is the expansion of the UK's Network & Information Systems Regulations 2018 (the NIS Regulations) which was proposed further to a consultation that took place in 2022. Indeed, there are some specific areas of cross-cutting areas of interest and this is a good opportunity for techUK members to provide input on lessons learned from NIS2.
Attendees are asked to note that this is a participatory session and members will be asked to provide their reflections as set out in the roundtable agenda below.
Roundtable Agenda
- Introductions (techUK/DSIT)
- Overview of UK CSR Bill proposals (DSIT)
- Reflections from industry on NIS2 (techUK members)
- How have you navigated the NIS2 Directive?
- What are your reflections on regulator capability within the EU?
- What are your reflections on regulatory overlaps in this context?
- What are your reflections on the scope of MSPs now captured under NIS 2 and how are you managing your compliance to this requirement?
- What are your reflections on the supply chain and risk assessment aspects of NIS2?
- What are your reflections on the NIS2 incident reporting requirements, including timelines for reporting?
- Any other relevant reflections on NIS2.
