NIS2 certification

What is the NIS2 Quality Mark?

Under the NIS2 directive, more than 8,000 essential and important organisations are responsible for managing the cybersecurity risks of their supply chain. This means they can require their direct suppliers—often SMEs—to prove they work securely in the digital space.

Our NIS2 Quality Mark is a recognised cybersecurity standard designed specifically for SMEs. It was developed in collaboration with industry associations, cybersecurity experts, legal specialists, and auditors, and is based on a practical cybersecurity maturity ladder. With this certification, SMEs can demonstrate to larger clients that they meet their security requirements.

How do I obtain the NIS2 Quality Mark?

Simply create a SDV account, follow our step-by-step guidance.

Are there different levels of certification?

Yes. We offer three levels (QM-10, 20 and 30) so you can choose the one that fits your organisation’s needs or your supplier’s risk profile.
