This Dutch national bill sets out rules to implement Directive (EU) 2016/1148, the EU's first directive on the security of network and information systems (the NIS Directive). The directive requires member states to raise cybersecurity standards for operators of essential services and certain digital service providers, and to manage cyber incidents that could disrupt critical functions. The bill, known as the Wet beveiliging netwerk- en informatiesystemen, is the Netherlands' national legislation for this purpose. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text. The bill would mainly affect operators of essential services, such as energy, transport, drinking water, health and digital infrastructure providers, along with relevant digital service providers. It would also affect the national authorities responsible for supervising cybersecurity and receiving incident reports.
