With major data breaches flooding the news and high-stakes security regulations coming into effect (looking at you, GDPR and NIS Directive), CISOs worldwide are scrambling.

With everyone’s minds focused on the upcoming GDPR deadline, EU members must not overlook the NIS Directive. EU member states must implement measures to comply with the NIS Directive before the 9th of May, 2018. So what are the biggest challenges to compliance with the directive?

They need a way to meet compliance without interrupting operations or impacting day-to-day tasks.
