Our newly updated NIS2 Implementation Tracker PDF is now live, giving you a clear, at‑a‑glance overview of where every EU Member State stands on NIS2 transposition.
 
 

The NIS2 Directive continues to reshape cybersecurity obligations across the EU. Although the official transposition deadline passed in October 2024, our latest analysis shows that implementation across Member States remains highly uneven. Several countries have completed the process, while others are still progressing through draft laws or parliamentary stages.

For organisations operating across multiple jurisdictions, this means compliance timelines and enforcement risks still vary significantly, making proactive planning essential.

Our newly updated NIS2 Implementation Tracker provides clear, country-by-country insights, including recent developments such as:

  • Germany completing implementation in December 2025
  • Austria publishing its NISG 2026 Act
  • Portugal’s final draft now published, entering into force April 2026
  • Sweden adopting its Cyber Security Act and Ordinance
  • Ongoing legislative activity in Poland, Luxembourg, Ireland, France and others

Explore the full PDF overview shown below for a short, accessible, at‑a‑glance breakdown of where each Member State stands.
