NIS2 raises the bar on how regulated organizations protect sensitive data across cloud platforms, SaaS applications, and digital supply chains. Its focus is the security and resilience of network and information systems that support essential and important services.
StratoKey provides data-centric security controls that directly support NIS2 requirements for risk management, access control, encryption, and supply chain security.

StratoKey’s Cloud Data Protection Platform is deployed within your environment to help enforce NIS2-aligned technical controls for data protection and risk reduction. Sensitive and regulated data is encrypted or tokenized before it is transmitted to SaaS platforms, cloud services, APIs, or third-party systems.
Regulated data remains under your control, while external platforms operate only on protected surrogate values.
StratoKey supports NIS2 by delivering enforceable technical and cryptographic controls aligned to Article 21 risk-management measures, particularly for data protection, access control, integrations, and supply-chain exposure.
| NIS2 Article | Requirement Description | StratoKey Technical Controls | Benefit |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Article 20 |
Management bodies must approve, oversee, and be accountable for cybersecurity risk-management measures. | Applies encryption and tokenization at the data layer before data enters cloud or SaaS systems, providing measurable and controlled risk reduction rather than policy-only controls. | Executive accountability supported by enforceable technical controls. |
|
Article 21(1) |
Organizations must implement appropriate and proportionate technical measures to manage cyber risk. | Protects sensitive data before it is transmitted to SaaS, cloud, or third-party platforms. Can either tokenize (keeping regulated data within sovereign boundaries) or end-to-end encrypt. | Reduced systemic risk across platforms and integrations. |
|
Article 21(2)(a) |
Establish and apply risk-based policies and technical measures to secure information systems and the data they process. | Enforces encryption and tokenization of sensitive data across information systems, APIs, and cloud workflows, aligned with data classification and risk policies. | Information system security controls are applied consistently based on risk, not left to downstream platforms or manual processes. |
|
Article 21(2)(b) |
Limit the impact of cybersecurity incidents. | Ensures exposed data is unreadable if a SaaS platform or supplier is breached. | Significantly reduced breach severity and exposure. |
|
Article 21(2)(c) |
Maintain operations during and after cyber incidents. | Applications continue operating using encrypted or tokenized values. | Business continuity is maintained during incidents. |
|
Article 21(2)(d) |
Address cybersecurity risks introduced by suppliers and service providers. | Prevents third parties from accessing plaintext sensitive data by securing it before it leaves your boundary. | Maintains control over access to sensitive data. |
|
Article 21(2)(e) |
Build security into systems and integrations by design. | Secures sensitive data inside API payloads ensuring integrations and automation do not introduce data exposure. | Secure-by-design integrations without slowing digital transformation. |
|
Article 21(2)(f) |
Demonstrate that cybersecurity measures are effective. | Consistent enforcement of encryption and tokenization across defined data flows, with auditable policy application. | Controls are verifiable and auditable. |
|
Articles 23–30 |
Report incidents and manage regulatory impact. | By limiting data exposure at source, StratoKey reduces incident scope. In addition, the platform provides monitoring and audit features that support incident assessment. | Lower regulatory exposure and faster, clearer incident classification. |
NIS2 requires organizations to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures under Article 21. From a technical perspective, this includes encryption, access control, secure system integration, supply chain risk reduction, and controls that limit the impact of incidents on sensitive data.
NIS2 and GDPR address different but complementary aspects of cyber risk.
GDPR focuses on the protection of personal data and individual privacy rights.
NIS2 focuses on the security and resilience of network and information systems that support essential and important services.
They overlap in practice where personal data is processed within systems covered by NIS2. In those cases, organizations must meet both GDPR and NIS2 obligations, including implementing appropriate technical measures such as encryption, access control, and incident impact limitation.
NIS2 does not replace GDPR, and compliance with one does not automatically mean compliance with the other. However, strong data-centric security controls can support requirements under both frameworks by reducing data exposure and limiting the impact of security incidents.
NIS2 requires appropriate cryptographic measures, including encryption, where necessary to protect the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive data processed through cloud services, SaaS platforms, and integrations (article 21).
Adopting cloud and SaaS services does not remove responsibility under NIS2.
StratoKey enables organizations to retain control of sensitive and regulated data while continuing to use external SaaS platforms, integrations, and automated workflows.
