NIS2· Romania · Cyber Risk

NIS2 in operations Not just in documentation.

Risk management, incidents, continuity, supply chain, identity, vulnerability management and governance — organized into a program that can be operated and demonstrated continuously.

Operational resilience

Cybersecurity as a program driven, not as an isolated technical verification.

NIS2 combines risk management, governance, incident readiness, resilience and supplier relationship. Measures must be technical, operational and organizational and tailored to the organization’s risk.

Readiness means starting from real services and systems, identifying gaps and being able to demonstrate in time how relevant measures are operated.

Readiness program

From scope to continuous evidence.

Readiness doesn’t start with a list of products; it starts with the services, risks and responsibilities of the organization.

01

Scope & applicability

We analyze the services, sector, size, jurisdiction and context of the organization to identify obligations to be validated.

02

Risk assessment

We link assets, services, threats, dependencies and providers to operational risk and impact scenarios.

03

Measures & remediation

We turn gaps into a program of technical, operational and organizational measures with clear owners and priorities.

04

Incident readiness

We define sorting, escalation, communication, evidence retention and the process required for applicable notifications.

05

Continuous evidence

Reviews, tests, supplier assessments, training and infrastructure changes remain related to the measures you need to be able to demonstrate.

Risk-management measures

The entire operational cycle is included in the program.

The areas are not isolated technical controls. They cover governance, people, suppliers, continuity, development, identity and verification of effectiveness.

01

Risk analysis & security policies

Risk methodology, policies and ownership that reflects real services and systems.

02

Incident handling

Detection, sorting, containment, communication and response process that can operate under pressure.

03

Business continuity

Backup, disaster recovery, crisis management and recovery scenarios testing.

04

Supply-chain security

The risks posed by suppliers and service providers are assessed and monitored throughout the relationship.

05

Secure acquisition & maintenance

Security in acquisition, development and maintenance, including vulnerability handling and disclosure.

06

Effectiveness reviews

Procedures to check whether cybersecurity measures really work and need to be adjusted.

07

Cyber hygiene & training

Basic practices, awareness and training for management and staff, proportionate to roles and risk.

08

Cryptography & encryption

Policies and procedures for the use of cryptography and, where appropriate, encryption.

09

Access & asset management

Human resources security, access control, inventory and ownership of relevant assets.

10

MFA & secure communications

Multi-factor authentication and secure communication channels where the context demands.

Governance

Management must see and lead the program.

Ownership, oversight and risk context cannot remain exclusively in the technical team.

01

Management approval

Risk management measures do not remain exclusively to the technical team; management must have visibility and ownership over the applicable program.

02

Oversight

The status of measures, risks, incidents and gaps must be able to be reviewed at the appropriate level of the organization.

03

Training

Members of management bodies and relevant staff must have sufficient context to understand the cybersecurity risks and practices affecting their services.

04

Evidence of decisions

Approvals, risk acceptance and significant actions must be traceable, not just informally discussed.

Incident readiness

Incident reporting begins before the incident.

If sorting, escalating and communicating are not prepared, the process becomes much harder to execute when the service is already under pressure.

01

Detect & qualify

You determine what happened, which services are affected, and whether the incident can fall into the category of those to be.

02

Escalate & contain

You enable technical and management owners, limit impact, and keep the information needed for investigation and reporting.

03

Notify when required

The internal process must be able to support the notification steps provided by the applicable framework, without improvising the recipients and information during the incident.

04

Recover & learn

Recovery, root-cause analysis and corrective actions return to the risk register, controls and continuity program.

Supply chain

Suppliers are part of the risk area.

A critical service can depend on cloud, software, telecom, identity, hosting, support or other providers. The program must be able to explain these dependencies.

01

Critical suppliers

Identify the providers and services on which the operations or security of the systems within the scope depend.

02

Security expectations

Technical, contractual and operational requirements are aligned with the risk that the relationship introduces.

03

Evidence & review

Evaluations, documents and findings do not remain a one-off check; they are reviewed when the relationship or service changes.

04

Concentration & dependency

You analyze dependencies that can turn the unavailability of a single provider into a significant business incident.

Legal reference

Framework of Romania

Directive (EU) 2022/2555 was transposed into Romania by OUG no. 155/2024, approved with amendments and supplements by Law no. 124/2025.

The page is oriented towards readiness and operations. For the final legal classification or interpretation of a specific obligation, the legal form in force and, if necessary, the competent legal specialist should be checked.

Case studies

Practical examples from the platform library about compliance and security programs built for growing organizations.

Frequently asked questions

Can ZebraByte decide if my organization is secure under NIS2? +

We can perform a technical and operational scope assessment and identify relevant indications regarding the sector, size, services and jurisdiction. For a final legal classification or a specific exception, the legal form in force and, where appropriate, the competent legal specialist must be used.

Is NIS2 just about documentation and policies? +

No. The framework includes technical, operational and organizational measures on risk management, incident handling, business continuity, supply-chain security, vulnerability handling, access control, training and other areas.

Should we replace all existing systems for NIS2? +

Not automatically. Readiness starts from the existing environment, risks and gaps. Measures must be appropriate and proportionate to the risk, and remediation is prioritized around the actual impact.

How to connect NIS2 to ISO27001? +

AISO27001 ISMS can provide useful structure for risk management, controls and evidence, but the two frameworks are not identical and one does not automatically replace the obligations of the other.

Can ZebraByte also help with technical measures, not just with GRC? +

Security assessment, identity hardening, website/email security, vulnerability remediation, incident readiness and secure managed hosting can support controls and measures when they are relevant to the program.

It starts with the gaps that change the real risk of the organization.

We evaluate the current situation, prioritize measures and build a program that you can maintain after the first evaluation.
