The EU's new NIS 2 Directive raises the bar for cybersecurity, especially for critical infrastructure sectors. But it's not just about technology upgrades – it emphasizes strong leadership involvement in building a cyber-resilient organization.

With the rise of infrastructure complexity, organizations must improve their strategies to quickly investigate and mitigate unauthorized system access and internal identity threats. Teleport has already highlighted the importance of identity threat detection and response and introduced features to support security incident containment. This article builds on these ideas by presenting additional metrics to detect suspicious employee behavior and options for expanding detection capabilities.

Cloud security teams are faced with an ever-increasing number of challenges. Attackers are focusing on more cloud-native attacks than ever. Meanwhile, the number of cloud service offerings—and by extension, the number of misconfigurations in them—is only growing. And there is always the risk that a sophisticated adversary could abuse a vulnerability in a cloud service provider to target cloud customers.

The latest version of the Network and Information Security Directive (NIS 2) has severe implications for companies that provide services or carry out activities in the European Union (EU). NIS 2’s goal is to establish a higher level of security and cyber resilience for member EU states in 18 essential industry sectors. Violations can lead to substantial fines, legal liability and even criminal sanctions on an individual level.
