Tool to map Dependencies to International Standards is available now

The EU Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) published a tool to map international security standards to interdependencies indicators.

The tool presented by ENISA contributes to the NIS Directive (Article 3) objective for a common and converged level of security in network and information systems at EU level. It does not intend to replace existing standards, frameworks or good-practices in use by OESs.

By using this tool, security experts may:

1. Describe the interdependencies among OES and DSP in a straightforward  and comprehensive manner;
2. Easily identify risk assessment practices for the evaluation of the potential impact of interdependencies;
3. Define good practices for assessing interdependencies stemming from international standards and frameworks.

It is addressed mainly to: 

• Operators of Essential Services (OES),
• Digital Service Providers (DSPs),
• National Competent Authorities (NCAs).
