Prepare your organisation for the new European cybersecurity standard

NIS2 & Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Employees from your HR system, automatically in your IT environment

The NIS2 Directive is the new European legislation¹⁶ that sharpens the cybersecurity obligations for thousands of organisations. From strong access security to incident management and risk governance. Identity & Access Management (IAM) forms the foundation: you must be able to demonstrate who has access, why, and how it is securely arranged.
Joinly helps you set up your Microsoft Entra ID and IAM processes to be NIS2-compliant. With automatic lifecycle management, role-based access, and demonstrable compliance.

What is NIS2?

Simplify IT management with lifecycle notifications

More and more organisations encounter the same problem:
you must work digitally secure, but no one knows exactly if it is “good enough”.

NIS2 is a new European law that aims to end this.
The law essentially states: you can no longer gamble on security, you must be able to show that you have it well organised.

That means you must:

✅ know who has access to your systems

✅ prevent former employees from retaining access

✅ report cyber issues quickly

✅ and be able to prove that your security is in order

For many companies, this feels like additional pressure on an already full IT agenda.

When an employee is created in your HR package, Joinly ensures that they are automatically created in your identity provider. Then, as an IT or HR team and as an employee, you receive automated messages about your changes. This way, IT is always in control, HR can track whether employees are successfully onboarded, and employees get immediate access to the company software they need.
