How was our meetup at Opero in Prague? Judge for yourself.

The second in our series of meetups on NIS2 and the new Cyber Security Act in practice took place on May 23, 2024 at Opero in Prague. The participants were treated not only to expert presentations, discussions and networking, but also to a great venue for the event. We are very pleased with the interest in our meetups, with about 120 people registered for this Prague meetup and about 70 people arriving at the venue. Those who were unable to attend received materials (presentations + recordings, photos) via email. And what was on the programme? See the photo gallery below.

The new Cyber Security Act will affect more than 6000 companies. Who will be affected by the new cybersecurity regulations? What are the basic obligations under the law and what can you start doing now? NIS2 will be included in the new Cyber Security Act. Although the final wording is not yet known, we take a look at the key areas that regulated entities will need to address. And not just those.
