QUESTION: How can I best protect my SME company against liability risks arising from the EU/nIS2 Regulation
or ANY other current and future mandatory EU or foreign regulations?
Note: The NIS2 Directive significantly expands your cybersecurity responsibilities. As an NIS2 entity, you must secure not only your
own operations but also your entire supply chain, including those of your suppliers. This is also important even if you are only a
smaller supplier and your company is not an NIS2 entity itself, as you may be exposed to significantly stricter requirements from
the NIS2 client and thus increased legal and financial risks (direct or indirect) if your services/products participate in an external
NIS2 supply chain.
ANSWER: By implementing a robust, future-proof IT/OT service management (ITSM) concept to provide maximum
operational and security 24x7-insights across your own IT/OT environment, and beyond…
Note: Given the EU/NIS2 regulations and its supply chain obligations for sub-contractors in case of critical NIS2 supply chains,
this also requires greater online security and observability of your parts/components deployed in the supply chain at each
customer location. This is preferably done online, or alternatively via a regularly scheduled assessment report that can be
seamlessly integrated into your comprehensive ITSM platform. The Splunk Enterprise Platform (Cisco) offers the best choice in
this case: it provides maximum security and observability combined with a flexible and comprehensive (secure) distributed
architecture.
We recommend you:
1.
create A clear (AIR-GAPPED) separation between your outsourced primary business workloads
and
your STRATEGIC monitoring processes.
Keep your strategic and critical monitoring systems under your direct and full
control (ON-EDGE), independent of any other external IT or cloud providers.
2.
Centralize all your monitoring on a single and proven
IT/ot service management platform: Consolidate all your strategic
24/7 monitoring processes on a single, proven, robust, and unified
platform. This approach simplifies management, provides consistent
visibility, and eliminates the learning curve of your multi-vendor systems.
Note: Instead of the one-dimensional big-tech cloud-only outsourcing
strategy of recent years, which is popular and widely used by SMEs
and typically encompasses all security and operational ITSM/BI service
tools. But it might be wiser, in light of the NIS2 regulation, to invest in
developing your own air-gapped on-edge monitoring concept based
on your own knowledge and expertise. This increases your legal resilience and leverage in potential disputes with your external (IT)
supplier(s) and government agency. This reduces your liability risk and prevents financial and reputational damage.
3.
THEREFORE AND Especially for SMES: implement Your OWN EU COMPLIANCE BOX ON-EDGE concept, based on the
powerful and world-renowned Splunk Enterprise platform. It offers a scalable, future-proof and robust solution for small and medium-
sized businesses. This box concept is quick and easy to implement, gives you almost immediate insights into your data, minimizes risks,
and helps you comply with all current and future EU regulations.
