Cybersecurity & Regulatory Compliance
NIS2 · Cyber Resilience Act · Business Continuity
Eulogika guides manufacturing companies and Italian SMEs through European cybersecurity regulatory compliance. Technical expertise, industrial experience and custom software development for concrete, lasting compliance.
The Four Pillars of Our Consulting
An integrated approach covering all aspects of regulatory cybersecurity — from risk assessment to operational continuity.
The NIS2 Directive: Obligations, Deadlines and Penalties
The NIS2 Directive, transposed into Italian law with D.Lgs. 138/2024 effective October 18, 2024, is the most significant cybersecurity regulatory update in recent years. It replaces the original NIS1 directive and dramatically expands the scope of obligated entities, affecting thousands of Italian companies — including many manufacturing businesses — previously outside regulation.
10 Mandatory Security Measures (Art. 24)
Key Deadlines for Italian Organizations
Who is Subject to NIS2?
The directive applies to organizations with more than 50 employees or €10 million in revenue operating in 18 critical sectors. Manufacturing is included as an "important entity" category, alongside energy, transport, banking, healthcare and digital infrastructure.
Penalties: The Cost of Non-Compliance
Non-compliance is not an option — financial and reputational risks are real and significant.
Energy, transport, banking, healthcare, digital infrastructure, water, space.
Manufacturing, food, waste management, public administration, research and others.
In addition to financial penalties, company executives may be suspended from office for serious violations.
Cyber Resilience Act: Security for Products with Digital Elements
The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), in force since December 2024 with full applicability from December 2027, introduces binding cybersecurity obligations for all hardware and software products placed on the European market. For manufacturing companies integrating digital components into their plants, machinery or industrial control systems, the CRA represents an immediate strategic priority.
Security by Design
Products with digital elements must be designed with security built-in from the development phase, with zero known vulnerabilities at the time of market introduction.
Vulnerability Management
Mandatory continuous monitoring, timely security updates and notification of actively exploited vulnerabilities to ENISA within 24 hours of discovery.
Technical Documentation
EU Declaration of Conformity, complete technical documentation and CE marking for all products with connected software components.
Post-Sale Support
Mandatory security support for at least 5 years from product launch, with free security updates provided to end users.
As software developers with deep Factory 4.0 expertise, Eulogika supports manufacturers in CRA compliance analysis of their embedded systems, in designing secure-by-design architectures and in producing the technical documentation required by the regulation.
Business Continuity: Guaranteed Operations Even During an Incident
Business continuity is an explicit NIS2 requirement (Art. 24, lett. c) and a fundamental pillar of any mature cybersecurity strategy. An unmanaged cyber incident can halt production, compromise customer data and generate losses in the millions. Eulogika designs Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plans tailored to each client's operational specifics.
Business Impact Analysis (BIA)
Identification of critical processes, analysis of disruption impacts (RTO/RPO) and economic quantification of risk for each business function.
Business Continuity Plan (BCP)
Strategic document defining response procedures, roles and responsibilities, required resources and activation criteria for critical events.
Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP)
Technical plan for IT system restoration, defining RPO and RTO, backup and failover architectures and periodic testing procedures.
Crisis Management & Exercises
Incident simulations, tabletop exercises and plan stress tests to ensure the organization is genuinely prepared, not just formally compliant.
