🔐 NIS2 in Belgium: where are we 15 months after the start?
Belgium was the first EU country to fully implement the NIS2 legislation. Today, 15 months later, experts from the Center for Cybersecurity Belgium (CCB) draw a first assessment: “We are on schedule.” 📊
What does this mean for companies in the cold chain?
✅ 4,000 essential and important entities registered ✅ CyFun framework: cybersecurity tailored to SMEs ✅ Incident reporting mandatory within 24 hours ⏰ April 2026: start conformity audits for essential entities
Good news: the Belgian approach focuses on support, not sanctions. The CCB helps organizations become stronger step by step in terms of cyber resilience.
As a BE-Cold member you may fall under essential or important entities (energy management, food chain, critical infrastructure). Time to prepare is running out - but help is available through the Safeonweb@work portal and www.cyberplan.be .
