This comprehensive publication examines the current state of NIS2 implementation across member states and affected organisations, providing insights into adoption progress and readiness levels. 

This White Paper arrives at a critical juncture, as the majority of EU member states have yet to transpose the NIS2 Directive, despite the October 17, 2024 deadline. Our research provides a comprehensive analysis of:

• The varying approaches to implementation across EU countries in key cybersecurity areas
• Results from our Europe-wide survey of cybersecurity practitioners on organizational preparedness
• Detailed case studies of sectoral implementation

 The findings emphasise the critical need for countries to harmonise their approaches across Europe to address the current fragmentation. The document includes key takeaways from our analysis of national and companies implementation approaches, along with actionable recommendations for institutional stakeholders to enhance the implementation process.
