The Network and Information Systems Regulations govern how certain critical UK services and digital service providers must secure their networks and information systems, assess risks, and report significant incidents. A solicitor helps identify which systems fall under the regime, creates or reviews risk assessments and security policies, drafts incident response and recovery plans, liaises with the Information Commissioner’s Office and the National Cyber Security Centre, and advises on audits, record-keeping, and provider safeguards to meet regulatory deadlines.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The work involves mapping regulatory requirements to the client’s technology stack, implementing proportionate security controls, coordinating incident notification within statutory timeframes, and ensuring robust governance, supplier assurance, and audit trails under the NIS Regulations.
