Lack of documentation, risk awareness, and technology gaps are now legal risks.
As the NIS2 Directive is being transposed into national law in Greece, organizations face stricter cybersecurity obligations — not only in theory, but in certified practice.
Therefore, essential and important entities must now prove their readiness through concrete controls, documentation, and audit-friendly processes.
However, beyond the general principles, every leadership team and IT/security manager in Greece is asking the same question:
What will the authority ask during an inspection — and are we truly prepared to meet both the requirements and certification expectations?
What Will Be Checked in a NIS2 Audit?
Organizations must be able to prove readiness — not just claim it. For example, here’s what you’ll need:
Control Area | Required Documentation |
Risk & GAP Analysis | Risk Assessment, Gap Report (vs. NIS2 controls) |
Policies & Procedures | Security Policies, BCP, IR Plans |
Technical Security Measures | Logs, Alerts, Access Control, MFA, Encryption |
Awareness & Training | Records of participation, phishing simulations |
Incident & Reporting Plans | 72h notification plan, communication workflows |
Audit Readiness | Compliance actions, supplier SLAs, full documentation |
How CyberSuccess Helps You Stay Compliant
AlphaBit’s CyberSuccess is a turnkey compliance framework that helps you:
- Assess risks and identify gaps
- Deploy technical controls (SIEM, MFA, DLP, Backups)
- Build actionable policies and incident plans
- Train employees with real simulations
- Maintain full documentation — ready for inspection and aligned with Greece’s NIS2 Directive requirements
Even if your organization has strong security in theory, however, failing to prove it in practice can mean non-compliance.
Consequently, how do you move from scattered documents and untested controls… to a ready-to-present audit pack that satisfies the NIS2 expectations?
NIS2 Compliance in Practice: What You’ll Actually Need to Show
1. Risk & GAP Assessment
NIS2 expects every organization to document:
- A risk assessment with real threat scenarios
- A GAP analysis comparing current state vs. directive requirements
- Evidence that both are reviewed regularly
To illustrate, Alphabit CyberSuccess includes this in the first stage — performed by certified consultants.
2. Policies, Plans & Procedures
Security isn’t just technical — it’s also governance. You’ll need:
- Written security policies (access, remote work, encryption)
- An incident response plan (IRP)
- Business continuity and disaster recovery documentation
- Assigned responsibilities
Moreover, we provide ready-to-customize policy templates — aligned with NIS2, ISO27001, GDPR.
3. Technical Security Controls
Tool Type | NIS2 Function |
SIEM | Detection & alerts |
MFA / IAM | Access control |
DLP | Data loss prevention |
Backups / DR | Resilience & recovery |
Awareness Tools | User training |
Furthermore, Alphabit CyberSuccess supports deployment and integration of all above — with documentation.
4. Awareness, Training & Simulation
You must prove your team is aware:
- Training logs and materials
- Participation tracking
- Phishing simulations with results
In addition, Alphabit CyberSuccess includes simulation campaigns and user engagement dashboards.
5. Be Audit-Ready — Always
The most critical deliverable? A complete, centralized compliance file — ready for inspection and aligned with Greece’s NIS2 Directive requirements.
Includes:
- All technical measures, policies & logs
- Mapped NIS2 controls
- Proof of vendor and user compliance
- Timeline of ongoing actions
The Bottom Line
NIS2 isn’t a checklist — it’s a mindset shift:
Can you prove your cybersecurity efforts, today, with confidence?
With AlphaBit’s CyberSuccess, your organization is ready — for inspections, audits, and real threats, fully aligned with the NIS2 Directive requirements in Greece.
