NIS2 Readiness Assessment

NIS2 Readiness Assessment

Clarity on the current implementation status and next steps.

With NIS2, many organisations face increased requirements regarding information security, risk management and organisational responsibilities. At the same time, established processes and security measures are often already in place and can serve as a foundation for further development.

The NIS2 Readiness Assessment helps to systematically assess the current implementation status, identify existing gaps and areas requiring action, and determine appropriate next steps.

NIS2 Applicability

Whether NIS2 applies to an organisation depends on various criteria and its specific circumstances. As part of the assessment, I support organisations in systematically gathering relevant information, evaluating applicable criteria and documenting the underlying assumptions in a transparent and traceable manner.

The aim is to provide a well-founded assessment to guide the next steps. A definitive legal determination of NIS2 applicability or specific legal consequences is not part of my consulting services.

Structured GAP Analysis

The NIS2 Readiness Assessment focuses on a structured and independent evaluation of the current implementation status. Based on the previously agreed scope, the assessment examines the extent to which relevant requirements are already addressed through existing organisational and technical measures, what supporting evidence is available and where further action is required.

The assessment considers not only existing policies and documentation but also how processes and measures are implemented in practice. It also examines whether the effectiveness of existing measures can be demonstrated through appropriate evidence. Open questions are explored in more detail, for example through interviews with relevant stakeholders, reviews of selected evidence or examination of specific implementation examples.

Existing management systems and security structures – particularly an established ISMS based on ISO/IEC 27001 – are explicitly taken into account. The objective is to build on established structures, appropriately recognise existing measures and transparently identify which requirements are already addressed, where further action is needed and what additional opportunities for improvement emerge during the assessment.

Results and Next Steps

The NIS2 Readiness Assessment provides a clear and traceable overview of the current implementation status. Identified gaps and areas requiring further action are documented in a structured manner. Additional opportunities for improvement identified during the assessment are also taken into account.

Based on these findings, specific areas for action and recommendations are developed and prioritised according to their significance and urgency. This provides a sound basis for planning necessary measures, further developing existing security structures and defining the next steps in a transparent and structured manner.

The organisation can implement the identified measures independently. If required, I can also provide support in planning and implementing these measures as part of my information security consulting services.
