Summary
The European Commission is taking France and Spain to the EU Court of Justice for failing to transpose the Network and Information Security (NIS 2) Directive into national law by the October 2024 deadline. The NIS 2 Directive is a cornerstone EU cybersecurity law requiring critical sectors to implement stronger security measures and report incidents. While 22 other EU member states have complied, France and Spain have not, despite the Commission sending formal notices in December 2024. The cases are expected to be filed before the end of 2025, with potential fines for non-compliance.
