Proposal to amend Regulation (EU) 2019/881 (Cybersecurity Act)
The proposed Cybersecurity Act 2.0 expands the original Cybersecurity Act with a focus on ICT supply chain security, high-risk third-country supplier restrictions, expanded EUCS certification, and enhanced ENISA powers. It introduces mandatory security assessments for key ICT assets and restricts high-risk suppliers from standardisation and certification activities.
