1. Introduction
In the last years, cybersecurity has become one of the European
Commission's critical priorities. Given that the landscape of
threats has significantly expanded, it comes as no surprise that
the Commission has proposed a revised version (the
"Proposal") of the Directive concerning
measures for a high common level of security of network and
information systems across the Union1 ("NIS
Directive").
In one of our previous articles2, we have touched
upon the issue of the potential amendments to NIS Directive. The
most important novelties are summarised below.
The Proposal has been published by the Commission on December
16, 2020 and has now reached the preparatory phase in the European
Parliament. A final version might be adopted in the earlier months
of 2021.
