  • This binds an essential or important entity within Priloga 1 or Priloga 2 on the same scope as this jurisdiction's companion risk-management row; Article 29(3) separately names a provider of an online marketplace, an online search engine or a social-networking-services platform, alongside a DNS, TLD, cloud, data-centre, content-delivery-network, managed-service or managed-security-service provider, for a variant significant-incident standard set in the Commission's NIS2 implementing acts.

  • Give your competent CSIRT group an early warning without delay, at latest within 24 hours of detecting a significant incident, stating whether it is suspected to result from an unlawful or malicious act and whether it may have a cross-border effect.
  • Follow with a full notification without delay, at latest within 72 hours, updating the early warning with an initial assessment of the incident's severity and impact and any available threat indicators, then an interim report if the CSIRT group asks for one, and a final report at latest one month after the 72-hour notification, or a progress report and a final report within one month of resolution if the incident is still ongoing at that point.
  • If you are a trust service provider, notify your competent CSIRT group of a significant incident affecting your services without delay, and at latest within 24 hours of detecting it, instead of waiting for the full notification (Article 30, paragraph 2).
