Prepare for NIS2 Compliance with the YubiKey

The EU’s NIS2 Directive enforces strict cybersecurity and access control mandates across 18 critical sectors, with non-compliance penalties reaching up to €10M or 2% of global annual turnover. To satisfy compliance, organisations classified as Essential or Important entities must adopt minimum technical measures, including multi-factor authentication (MFA) and Zero Trust cyber hygiene practices. However, legacy authentication (including SMS, OTPs, and mobile push notifications) remains vulnerable to phishing and credential harvesting. Meeting NIS2 requirements requires moving beyond weak MFA to hardware-backed, phishing-resistant security (AAL3/LoA High).

In our ebook, Prepare for NIS2 Compliance with the YubiKey, cybersecurity and compliance leaders across the EU will discover how to translate NIS2 mandates into practical, enterprise-wide defence. Learn how to eliminate identity blind spots, protect third-party supply chain access, and secure challenging operational environments like shared workstations and mobile-restricted facilities.

Download the ebook to learn how to:

• Meet NIS2 MFA & Access Control Mandates: Transition from vulnerable SMS and mobile push notifications to high-assurance, phishing-resistant authentication.
• Navigate Essential vs. Important Requirements: Determine your entity classification, clarify oversight levels, and mitigate regulatory exposure.
• Secure Shared Workstations and Restricted Environments: Deploy FIDO2 security keys across shared workstations, critical infrastructure, and offline environments without relying on mobile devices or battery-powered hardware.
• Reinforce Supply Chain & Zero Trust Security: Require third-party suppliers and vendors to use phishing-resistant MFA to satisfy NIS2 supply chain security mandates.
• Satisfy Cryptography Directives: Safeguard cryptographic keys, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), and Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) using hardware security modules like the YubiHSM 2.
