Czechia reprimanded by EC over cybersecurity law

The European Commission has reprimanded the Czech Republic for delays in adopting a new cyber law and implementing the NIS2 security directive. Czechia’s Office for Cyber Security plans to request an extension for the law’s implementation.

The new legislation is to strengthen cybersecurity and was due for adoption last October. Currently, a draft is under review in the Chamber of Deputies. It seeks to expand the number of organizations requiring enhanced cyber protection, focusing on preventive measures and incident reporting.
