NIS2: It’s not just an EU thing.

A quiet shift in cybersecurity regulation is about to make noise – and UK businesses need to pay attention.

NIS2 massively expands the original NIS Directive. More sectors. More requirements. More pressure on leadership to actually care about cyber risk.

If your business touches the EU (or works with suppliers who do), it could be in scope – even if you’re based in the UK. And even if it’s not mandatory, aligning with NIS2 is quickly becoming a mark of credibility.

🔒 Risk-based security
⏱ Rapid incident reporting
🔗 Supply chain accountability
📈 Leadership-level responsibility

Not sure if you’re affected? Want to get ahead of the game? Let’s talk.

Compliance is moving fast. I’ll help you keep up 👽

Wanna know what a total scam the 'Cyber Essentials' scheme is...?

The assessment is the same this year as last, so on one of them, I have copied/pasted every single answer word for word from the previous (passed & approved) certification. The only changes I made were:

- Update browser versions to reflect current
- Add 1 new bit of software
- Update Anti-Malware versions
- Update OS patching levels

...assessment was rejected with 'needs more information'.
