In the past, an organization’s digital data was safe behind passwords, firewalls, and physical locked doors. Today, cloud computing and remote work have rendered these traditional approaches much less effective. Threat actors can launch attacks from almost any device, almost anywhere. Usernames and passwords are widely available on the dark web. To keep sensitive data safe, organizations must understand that any account — even one with the proper credentials — could be compromised.

Endpoint detection and response (EDR) has been a standard method for securing on-premises devices for years. When combined with antivirus software, it’s proven an effective way to uncover threats before they can cause severe damage. However, the growth of smartphones and other mobile devices means more and more work is getting done outside of the office. Organizations can no longer rely on traditional EDR protections as millions more endpoints are now exposed to the threat of a cyber attack.

AI Agents are revolutionizing enterprise efficiency, automating decisions, and enhancing capabilities. But while these agents drive operational improvements, they also introduce unique security challenges. Traditional silos often hinder effective risk management.

NIS2 is a transformative directive reshaping how organizations across Europe and the globe approach cybersecurity, supply chain management, and operational resilience. A lot has been written about compliance strategies, but what does NIS2 mean in practice? We’ve asked the Institut Luxembourgeois de Régulation (ILR), Luxembourg’s national regulatory authority responsible for overseeing the implementation and enforcement of NIS2 in the country.
