From operators for operators – 14 sector specific IT security standards from cooperation „up kritis”
Operators of Critical Infrastructures (CI) face a severe cyber threat landscape. While some IT security challenges are universal, others are sector-specific. Germany’s implementation of the NIS Directive enabled operators to propose industry standards for IT security; 14 such standards now exist. The B3S Medical Care for example addresses the specifics of medical devices. These standards are collaboratively developed by operators and authorities under UP KRITIS, a PPP for CI protection with around 800 members. The talk will also explain, how UP KRITIS supports NIS2 and CER implementation.
