European Parliament has voted 577-6 to approve the NIS2 Directive, an updated framework based on the EU Network and Information Security Directive. Parliament said that the directive introduces new provisions and increased obligations concerning "incident response, supply chain security, encryption and vulnerability disclosure" for private and many public entities.
