The Cybersecurity Act is here: from formal compliance to operational resilience
On 15 January 2026, the Cybersecurity Act (Cybersäkerhetslagen) and the Cybersecurity Ordinance (Cybersäkerhetsförordningen) entered into force, thereby implementing NIS2 into Swedish law. For many businesses, this means stricter requirements on risk management measures, incident reporting, and governance/responsibility, while guidance and sector-specific regulations may be introduced gradually. Now that the Swedish implementation of the Cybersecurity Act (the NIS2 Directive) is in force, we analyse the current status and highlight the most important aspects for your business.
