In an era of increasing cyber threats, regulatory frameworks like NIS2, DORA, and KRITIS set stringent requirements for organizations to enhance their cybersecurity posture. Compliance is no longer just an IT concern – it’s a strategic priority that requires active involvement from management.
cyan’s DNS-based security solution provides organizations with an effective way to reduce cyber risks, improve resilience, and meet regulatory requirements. Let’s explore how cyan helps businesses comply with these critical regulations.
NIS2: Strengthening Cyber Resilience for Essential Services
The NIS2 Directive expands the cybersecurity requirements for organizations operating essential and important services across Europe. Compliance requires robust risk management, incident detection, and executive accountability.
✅ How cyan helps:
- Prevention of Cyber Threats: cyan blocks phishing, malware, ransomware, fake shops, and identity theft at the DNS level, reducing attack risks before they reach users.
- Incident Detection & Response: By identifying and blocking malicious traffic in real time, cyan enhances early threat detection.
- Compliance with Risk Management Mandates: Organizations can integrate cyan’s solutions into their cybersecurity strategies, ensuring continuous protection and compliance with NIS2.
DORA: Ensuring Digital Operational Resilience in Finance
The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) introduces strict IT risk management and resilience requirements for financial institutions, ensuring they can withstand cyberattacks and operational disruptions.
✅ How cyan helps:
- Protection Against Financial Fraud & Identity Theft: By filtering access to fraudulent websites, cyan safeguards customers and employees from financial cybercrime.
- Third-Party Risk Mitigation: Many financial institutions rely on third-party service providers. cyan ensures that traffic to compromised or untrusted domains is blocked, reducing supply chain risks.
- Regulatory Compliance & Reporting: cyan’s solutions include comprehensive logging and reporting features, helping financial institutions meet compliance documentation requirements.
KRITIS: Securing Critical Infrastructure
Germany’s KRITIS regulations (including IT-Sicherheitsgesetz 2.0) mandate strict cybersecurity controls for operators of critical infrastructure, such as energy, healthcare, telecommunications, and finance.
✅ How Cyan Helps:
- DNS-Level Defense for Critical Systems: By preventing communication with malicious servers, cyan protects operational technology (OT) and IT infrastructure.
- Regulatory Readiness: Cyan helps businesses demonstrate compliance by providing transparent security logs that prove adherence to cybersecurity requirements.
- Business Continuity & Risk Reduction: Ensuring that ransomware and other attacks are blocked at the DNS level minimizes downtime and financial loss.
