NIS2 compliance eats up IT budgets despite skepticism

  • Risk management (34%)
  • Employment (30%)
  • Risk management (29%)
  • Emergency shelters (25%)

And although companies have already cut their IT budgets over the past two years, additional funds have been allocated to comply with NIS2, according to 68% of those surveyed. This limitation may also explain why 80% of IT budgets are now allocated to cybersecurity and compliance, according to Veeam.

“Maintaining security and compliance is important for any organization, but the fact that it currently consumes a large portion of IT budgets highlights how poorly prepared and under-resourced organizations are,” commented Andre Troskie, Field CISO EMEA at Veeam, in the release.

“NIS2 should not be considered a problem, yet one in four businesses seem to view it as such,” added colleague Edwin Weijdema, Field CTO EMEA at Veeam, in the release.
