Tens of thousands of European organizations are legally accountable for the security of companies they do not control but on whose services they rely. Under Article 21(2)(d) of the NIS2 Directive, any in-scope entity is required to manage supply chain security, including the security aspects of its relationships with its direct suppliers and service providers. Article 21(3) further specifies that an organization must take each supplier’s specific vulnerabilities into account.
What it means for organisations
- Check whether it applies to you – by sector, size and the services you provide.
- Map it to the controls you already have: most new rules ask for evidence of things you should already do.
- Keep records of decisions, risks and incidents – regulators ask for evidence, not intentions.
