Simplifying NIS2 compliance leveraging CCB’s official CyberFundamental frameworks

The Belgian transposition of the NIS2 Directive introduces the CyberFundamentals (CyFun®) framework, overseen by the Belgian Centre for Cybersecurity (CCB). CyFun® sets a clear path for organizations to manage cybersecurity risks and demonstrate compliance with NIS2

NIS2 Directive

NIS2 Directive is the European Basis for the Belgian Law (not legally directly binding)

Belgian Law

The Belgian Law incorporates the NIS2 directive into Belgium’s Legal Structure (legally binding)

CyFun®

CyFun® can be seen as a practical guide to help companies comply with Belgian Law and therefore the original NIS2 directive this law transposes

CyFun® sets a clear path for organisations to manage cybersecurity risks and demonstrate compliance with NIS2

To meet these requirements, organisations must:

  • Adopt suitable cybersecurity measures
  • Timely notification of significant incidents
  • Register with the CCB platform
  • Train management members (sec. 3.11)
  • Regular conformity assessments (mandatory for essential entities and voluntary for important)
  • Share information and collaborate with authorities

Depending on your entity type, compliance with CyFun® can provide:

Essential entities
Mandatory certification and regular compliance assessment that grant, if obtained, legal presumption of compliance with Belgian Law implementing NIS2

Important entities
Optional verification that strengthens your compliance posture and prepares you for audits.

The CCB considers that a full implementation of CyFun® Essentials level allows you to counter 100% of most commons attacks within your industry.

We'll support your journey to NIS2 compliance and CyFun® verification/certification in a manageable, transparent, and actionable way
