Crosswalk · From the team behind this site

From reading NIS2 to showing what you have in place

Crosswalk assesses your organisation against the NIS2 baseline: the governance duty of Art. 20, the ten risk-management measures of Art. 21 and the reporting deadlines of Art. 23. It assesses against the Directive, so tighten it to your national act where that goes further. Where a duty coincides with the CRA or the GDPR it is flagged, so you assess once and evidence it for both.

  • Art. 20, 21 and 23 as a gap analysis, with the Directive text alongside
  • A NIS2 dossier you can export and hand over
  • The 24 hour, 72 hour and one month clocks worked out per incident

Lite licence at €0 at launch: one project, all five laws, no payment details, a small "Made with Crosswalk Lite" credit on what it makes. Paid plans from €99 per person per month.
