As fleets embrace cellular IoT technology, they achieve unparalleled efficiencies in real-time tracking, predictive maintenance, and seamless communication. However, this increased connectivity also exposes them to significant cybersecurity risks, particularly in the realm of cellular IoT. These unique challenges are often overlooked but can cause severe operational and financial damage if not properly addressed.
The NIS2 Directive has come into full force across the EU, exposing utilities to stricter cybersecurity compliance amid increasing risks driven by the rapid growth of connected IoT devices like cellular connected smart meters. With stringent cybersecurity measures and potential penalties at stake, this regulation is set to reshape how European utilities manage their digital infrastructure. Compliance is not optional—it\’s critical.
NIS2 sets comprehensive cybersecurity obligations for Entities, focusing on strengthening the resilience of critical infrastructure. Articles 21 and 23 of the Directive focused on cybersecurity risk management and reporting obligations. They encapsulate the essence of strong cybersecurity and responsive incident management. European utility providers can leverage these mandates to not only meet compliance but fortify their operations against a rapidly evolving cyber threat landscape.
