NIS2 compliance consultants and cybersecurity auditors

NIS2 compliance consultants join your team to assess obligations under the relevant national legislation and identify gaps in existing security arrangements. They coordinate scope questions with your legal advisers, including entity classification and cross-border responsibilities.

Request an assessment mapped to NIS2 Article 21 requirements, with named control owners and a prioritised remediation backlog. Specialists can map existing ISO/IEC 27001:2022 controls to those requirements, identify missing evidence and prepare management briefings on oversight responsibilities.

Security engineers address technical gaps identified during a NIS2 assessment. Work can cover identity controls and vulnerability remediation, with implementation records that support later review.

• Access and vulnerability management: Configure multifactor authentication and privileged access controls. Establish patching responsibilities and exception handling for systems that cannot be updated immediately.
• Supply chain security: Assess supplier access and contractual security requirements. Define evidence requests and remediation actions for suppliers whose services affect essential business processes.

Incident response specialists turn regulatory reporting obligations into procedures your security team can use during an incident. They define escalation thresholds and reporting responsibilities against applicable national requirements, with legal review where needed.

• Incident readiness: Develop response playbooks and reporting templates. Run tabletop exercises to test decisions under time pressure.
• Continuity and recovery: Review business impact assessments and recovery plans. Test backup restoration against agreed recovery objectives, then document corrective actions for failed or incomplete tests.

Security auditors review whether documented controls operate as intended, using evidence sampling and interviews with control owners. Findings distinguish missing documentation from implementation failures, with remediation priorities tied to business exposure.

For ongoing support, NIS2 consultants maintain control registers and track corrective actions as systems or suppliers change. They can prepare evidence for customer assessments or regulatory enquiries and recheck closed findings. A readiness review does not constitute regulatory approval or a universal NIS2 certification.
