Session
Perfect Storm: "A confluence of events that drastically aggravates a situation."
In "The Perfect Storm," we'll explore the critical confluence of digital sovereignty, the NIS2 directive, and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). These new regulations create a "perfect storm" that significantly increases personal liability for C-level, with fines reaching up to €10 million per incident.
