NIS2

Who NIS2 applies to

Article 2 applies the directive to public or private entities of a type in Annex I or Annex II that are medium-sized, or larger, under Recommendation 2003/361/EC, and that provide services or carry out activities in the Union.

Some entities are in scope regardless of size. That list includes DNS service providers, top-level domain name registries, trust service providers, and providers of public electronic communications networks or publicly available electronic communications services. Article 3 then splits in-scope entities into essential and important.
