[cooperation-wg] RIPE NCC contributes to consultation on NIS Directive

Dear colleagues,

The RIPE NCC responded to the European Commission’s open consultation on the review of the Directive on Security of Network Information Systems (NIS Directive), which closed on 2 October. 

Specifically, we encouraged the European Commission to develop better definitions, in cooperation with the technical community, for the terms described in Annex II of the NIS Directive, including such terms as “network and information systems”, “operator of essential services”, "digital service provider” and more. 

We contribute to these kinds of consultations, both at the EU level and across the RIPE NCC’s service region, in order to provide technical expertise to policymakers and to promote a multistakeholder model of Internet governance. 

You can find a complete list of past contributions to external consultations on our website:

Please let us know if you have any comments or questions. 

Best regards,

Suzanne Taylor
RIPE NCC
