Firewall review for NIS2
NIS2 expands cybersecurity obligations across the EU and holds management accountable. FirewallScan helps essential and important entities keep firewalls reviewed, controlled and evidenced.
What NIS2 expects from your firewall
NIS2 requires in-scope organizations to implement appropriate technical and organizational risk-management measures, including network security, access control, and secure configuration. It also makes management bodies directly accountable for cybersecurity.
Firewalls sit at the heart of network security. NIS2 expects them to be configured to manage risk and to be part of a measurable, reviewed security posture — not configured once and forgotten.
- Appropriate, risk-based network security measures
- Controlled access and secure configuration
- Demonstrable, reviewed posture with management accountability
Why NIS2 makes firewall review urgent
NIS2 broadens scope across many sectors and adds real consequences for non-compliance.
Wider scope
Many more organizations across energy, health, manufacturing, digital and public sectors now fall in scope as essential or important entities.
Management liability
Leadership can be held personally accountable, raising the stakes for demonstrable controls.
Risk-based measures
The directive expects proportionate, reviewed technical measures — exactly where firewall review fits.
