The amended NIS1
Directive ensures our clients meet the highest digital security standards, adapting to the latest European law requirements. It now covers medium and large enterprises in certain sectors, offering flexibility in identifying smaller high-risk companies.
The revision mandates new responsibilities like risk analysis, risk management solutions, system security policies, supply chain security, and developing a Business Continuity Plan. NIS2 intensifies incident reporting requirements and increases penalties for non-compliance, obligating key and important entities to report serious cyberattack incidents within specified deadlines.

Web Application
Firewall
WAF is a security solution that serves as an application firewall, designed to protect web applications from attacks, application security vulnerabilities, and malicious activities. It functions as a filter between the application and the network, monitoring and analyzing incoming and outgoing traffic to identify and block potential threats.
Reliable backup
Backup is a copy of data stored on a server or in computers. A backup is prepared to protect against the consequences of losing such data. And there can be many reasons for data loss. A failure in the company hosting our website or a cybercriminal attack on the network infrastructure is enough. Backup copies guarantee the continuity of an institution’s operations.
DNS protection
DNS, or the Domain Name System, is a service that associates a domain with the IP address of a given server. It allows an internet user to access a specific website without knowing its exact IP address. Any domain can be easily forged, thus data can be stolen from an entity. A DNS resolver ensures the security of users.
