In today’s digital age, cybersecurity is no longer optional but it’s a fundamental business priority. The new EU NIS2 directive brings demanding standards for protecting companies infrastructures, setting clearly defined requirements on resilience and compliance.
Excalibur's unique solution, which combines Privileged Access Management with Multi-Factor Authentication, has been designed to assist organizations in answering these challenges while remaining in line with the security expectations set by the directive.
NIS2 is not something to be taken lightly. Non-compliance can result in severe penalties, reputational damage, and loss of customer trust. For many businesses, putting a robust security framework in place is not just about regulatory compliance. It's about protecting operations and stakeholders in line with the risk management measures provided for under Article 18.
The Excalibur PAM solution implements this principle - the basic principle of minimizing the risk created by privileged accounts through provision of least-privilege access. If all users receive rights only to resources absolutely required for work performance, this sharply reduces the surface for a potential cyberattack. This is an unequivocal illustration of best practices related to security within the parameters of NIS2 and also assists in raising defense and operational efficacy toward attaining overarching network security goals specified within Article 21.
MFA is incorporated into Excalibur's solution as a key security measure to ensure sensitive accounts are accessible only to authorized persons. This multilayered defense aligns directly with the requirements of Article 21, further protecting identity and reducing the likelihood of unauthorized access to critical systems.
Monitoring and auditing under NIS2 are keystones for security. The Excalibur PAM solution ensures every privileged user action is logged automatically for enterprises to swiftly detect anomalies to address a possible threat even before it actually occurs. These logs will provide, in line with the expectation from Article 23, the insight to enable compliance reporting and make sure that an organization is able to rapidly react to incidents that can be described as proactive security rather than reactive.
Other critical concerns under NIS2 are supply chain risks, especially with the vulnerability introduced by third-party access to sensitive systems. Excalibur addresses this challenge by offering them secure management of external partner access, hence ensuring that companies meet the emphasis of the directive in securing the supply chain as articulated in Article 22. This capability protects sensitive data while preserving compliance.
Excalibur’s solution is more than just a compliance tool. Excalibur is an integrated approach that empowers organizations to achieve the highest standards of cybersecurity. By democratising Privileged Access Management (PAM) for every organization Excalibur makes security simple, affordable, and accessible. With seamless integration, ease of use, and a phone-centric passwordless experience, companies can confidently address the complexities of the NIS2 directive. This approach combines the right technology, processes, and people, enhancing digital security posture, maintaining operational integrity, and ensuring that security is never a barrier to progress.
