Operators of Essential Services
Security solutions for critical infrastructure run by OESs
Stormshield solutions for OESs
Because their information systems are extremely sensitive in the European Union, Stormshield assists Operators of Essential Services (OESs) in securing their information systems and achieving cyber compliance.
What does cybersecurity compliance for Operators of Essential Services entail
In addition to the cybersecurity measures for operators of vital importance (OIVs), introduced by the French military planning law (LPM) in 2013, the European Union has defined Operators of Essential Services (OESs) and established recommendations to ensure their compliance.
What does the NIS Directive say?
The European Union defined the concept of an OES in the Network and Information Security (NIS) Directive of 2016. Having entered into force in France in 2018, it aims to ensure the same high level of security of networks and information systems throughout the EU.
For example, OESs should follow important recommendations issued by theEuropean Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA), which operates at the European level.
Why secure OESs’ critical infrastructure?
OESs are defined by the European Union as actors providing an “essential” service (ES), the disruption of which would have a significant impact on the functioning of the economy or society of any EU country. They therefore have sensitive and critical infrastructures that require protection at all costs.
