Adherence with NIS2 is crucial for maintaining for our Partner base and the competitive edge in Europe, an important growth market for SkyKick. This new directive brings stricter cybersecurity measures and ensures that organizations like ours are well-prepared to protect critical infrastructure and sensitive data.
At SkyKick, we have always prioritized the cybersecurity of our Partners and Customers. Our full adherence with NIS2 not only demonstrates our dedication to meeting the highest standards of cybersecurity but also provides our Partners with the assurance that we are fully aligned with evolving regulatory requirements. This achievement enables our Partners to leverage our technology to support their own, and their customers’, compliance with the new EU cybersecurity directive.
