NIS2 Directive Consulting — UK
The EU NIS2 Directive reaches UK firms indirectly — through EU customers, supply chains, and contractual obligations. If you provide critical services to EU clients (energy, transport, health, digital infrastructure, MSPs), NIS2-aligned documentation is increasingly a deal requirement. We help UK firms build NIS2-aligned controls, incident reporting frameworks, and accountability evidence.

What we cover
Practical, board-ready consulting — no jargon, no surprise invoices.
NIS2 scope determination
We confirm whether NIS2 affects your firm indirectly — through EU customers, regulated supply chains, or contractual clauses — and identify the precise provisions you need to evidence.
Risk-management measures documentation
Document the technical, operational, and organisational measures NIS2 Article 21 expects — policy baselines, decentralised access, multi-factor auth, incident handling, crisis comms, training, supply-chain risk, vulnerability disclosure.
Incident reporting framework
Build a NIS2-compliant incident reporting process: 24-hour early warning, 72-hour notification, 1-month final report — including who notifies which CSIRT, and how that integrates with UK ICO and ICO obligations.
Supply-chain security mapping
Identify and risk-tier your upstream suppliers and downstream customers. Document supplier security commitments and your oversight — what NIS2 expects from 'essential and important entities'.
Top-management accountability pack
Board-level briefing, approval evidence, and signed-off responsibility matrix — proving that management approved security measures and training, as NIS2 Article 20 requires.
Coordinated cross-border reporting
Where an incident affects EU and UK entities, we orchestrate the dual notification: ICO (UK GDPR) and the relevant EU CSIRT — so a single incident doesn't trigger regulatory gaps.
How we work
Scoping (week 1)
Workshops to identify NIS2 touchpoints — EU clients, supply chains, contracts. Output: a scope memo that says what does and doesn't apply to you.
Gap analysis (week 2-3)
Map current controls against NIS2 Article 21. Output: gap register with prioritised remediation, owners, and effort estimates.
Remediation support (week 4-8)
Implement priority controls with your IT/MSP. Author policies, build incident reporting process, draft supplier risk questionnaire.
Evidence & review (week 9-10)
Deliver the audit pack: scope memo, gap register, control evidence, reporting process, accountability sign-off, board briefing.
