If you run ground infrastructure in the EU
If you run ground-based infrastructure for satellites from an EU Member State, NIS2 requires you to assess whether your security measures are actually effective, and 303 Overwatch runs a no-fee working session that helps you stand up your own exercise capability to do it.
