What We Do

Three Foundational Pillars

Cyber Governance & Compliance

NIS2, DORA, CRA, and the AI Act create overlapping obligations with real penalties. We translate them into a single, actionable security program — so you know exactly where you stand.

Supply Chain Security

30% of breaches now involve third parties — doubled from last year. We map your entire digital supply chain so you can see risk exposure before it becomes a liability.

Security Products & Innovation

Stop managing multi-million euro compliance risks in spreadsheets. OBLIGO — our Cyber Liability Operating System launching in 2026 — gives you one platform for obligations, risk, and response.

How We Work

From Assessment to Operational Readiness

01

Assess

Third-Party Due Diligence

Your digital supply chain is mapped, third-party cyber risk exposure assessed, and obligation gaps identified across your vendor ecosystem.

02

Govern

Obligation & Liability Mapping

Contractual obligations, liability clauses, and regulatory requirements become structured governance workflows tied to your service agreements — auditable and always current.

03

Monitor & Respond

Early Warning & Incident Readiness

AI-informed monitoring detects when supplier incidents trigger your obligations, with clear playbooks for response and escalation.

The Stakes

Why Organisations Choose CYBERSOL

The numbers speak for themselves — and they're getting worse every quarter.

Reduce Financial Loss

NIS2 penalties reach €10 million or 2% of global turnover. We build the compliance posture that keeps fines off your balance sheet.

Strengthen Supply Chain

Our BN3 report tracked 78 confirmed third-party incidents in one quarter alone. We map your exposure before the next one hits your supply chain.

Gain Operational Clarity

Replace spreadsheet compliance with structured, auditable workflows. When regulators ask for evidence, you produce it in minutes — not weeks.

Build Client Trust

NIS2 holds senior management personally liable for cybersecurity failures. We give your board demonstrable governance that protects the organisation — and themselves.

Not Sure Where to Start?

Most organisations we work with begin with a 30-minute compliance assessment. We'll identify which regulations apply, where the gaps are, and what to prioritise first.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is NIS2 and which organisations does it apply to?

The NIS2 Directive (Network and Information Security Directive 2) is the EU's updated cybersecurity legislation that significantly expands the scope of the original NIS Directive. It applies to essential entities (energy, transport, banking, health, water, digital infrastructure) and important entities (postal services, waste management, food, manufacturing, digital providers) across 18 sectors. Organisations with 50+ employees or €10M+ turnover in these sectors are in scope. EU member states were required to transpose NIS2 into national law by October 2024, with enforcement timelines varying by country.

How does DORA affect financial services firms?

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is an EU regulation that applies to banks, insurance companies, investment firms, payment institutions, crypto-asset service providers, and their critical ICT third-party service providers. DORA requires these entities to implement comprehensive ICT risk management frameworks, establish incident reporting procedures, conduct regular digital operational resilience testing (including threat-led penetration testing for significant entities), and manage ICT third-party risk through standardised contractual arrangements. DORA has been enforceable since January 2025.

What is the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and when does it take effect?

The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is an EU regulation that establishes cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements — including both hardware and software — placed on the EU market. Manufacturers must ensure security by design, provide free security updates, handle and disclose vulnerabilities, and apply CE marking to demonstrate conformity. The CRA entered into force in late 2024, with most obligations becoming mandatory by late 2027. Critical products (Class I and II) require third-party conformity assessments.

What are the penalties for NIS2 non-compliance?

NIS2 introduces substantial penalties for non-compliance. Essential entities face fines of up to €10 million or 2% of global annual turnover (whichever is higher). Important entities face fines of up to €7 million or 1.4% of global annual turnover. Critically, NIS2 also introduces personal liability for management bodies — senior management can be held personally responsible for failures to comply with cybersecurity risk management obligations, including potential temporary bans from exercising managerial functions.

How should organisations manage supply chain cyber risk under NIS2?

Article 21 of NIS2 explicitly requires organisations to address supply chain security as part of their cybersecurity risk management measures. This means conducting thorough risk assessments of direct suppliers and service providers, establishing contractual security requirements with third parties, monitoring the security posture of critical suppliers on an ongoing basis, and ensuring incident notification chains are in place across the supply chain. Organisations must also consider the overall quality of products and cybersecurity practices of their suppliers, including their secure development procedures.

What is the difference between NIS2 and the original NIS Directive?

NIS2 represents a major overhaul of the original 2016 NIS Directive. Key differences include: significantly expanded scope (from 7 to 18 sectors, with size-based thresholds replacing member state discretion), stronger enforcement powers (harmonised penalties across the EU), explicit management body liability (personal accountability for senior leadership), mandatory supply chain security measures, harmonised incident reporting timelines (24-hour early warning, 72-hour full notification), and stricter security requirements including vulnerability disclosure, encryption, and multi-factor authentication.

Does my software product need CRA compliance?

If your product contains digital elements (software or connected hardware) and is placed on the EU market, it likely falls under the CRA. This includes standalone software, IoT devices, and connected products. Manufacturers bear the primary compliance burden, but importers and distributors also have obligations. Notable exemptions include open-source software developed outside a commercial context, medical devices (covered by separate regulations), and products exclusively used for national security. Most products can undergo self-assessment, but critical products in Class I and II categories require third-party conformity assessment by a notified body.

How can CYBERSOL help with EU cyber compliance?

CYBERSOL provides end-to-end support across three pillars: Cyber Governance & Compliance (translating NIS2, DORA, CRA, and AI Act obligations into actionable security programs with gap assessments, policy development, and audit preparation), Supply Chain Security (mapping and monitoring third-party cyber risk across your digital supply chain, including vendor assessments and contractual security frameworks), and Security Products (purpose-built tools including OBLIGO, our integrated compliance platform launching in 2026, which unifies supply chain monitoring, compliance workflows, and risk analytics).
