NIS2 compliance: Fixing IAM and access control before the 2026 audit

The NIS2 Directive imposes compliance obligations on organizations in supply chain risk management, incident reporting, and board accountability, with enforcement beginning across EU member states in October. Essential entities face fines up to 10 million euros for non-compliance. The article highlights identity and access management (IAM) and access control as critical areas to address ahead of audits.

Why it matters: Essential service providers and operators of critical infrastructure in the EU must prepare IAM and access control controls now; enforcement deadlines in October 2026 will trigger regulatory scrutiny and substantial financial penalties.
