Details

Cybersecurity is set to be one of the dominant themes in EU governance in the coming years, and EU law has begun to adapt to the challenges presented by security with the adoption of the Network and Information Security Directive. This book explores the binding effects of the legal instruments, and analyses the impact of the constraining factors originating from NIS-related domestic policies across Finland, France, Greece, Ireland, Luxembourg and Poland upon the transposition of the NIS Directive.

Combining insights from law and political science, the book offers a comparative empirical analysis of national policies and regulations regarding Network and Information Security, as well as the national legal framework deriving from the NIS directive’s transposition. The book argues that the more the Directives offer a regulatory leeway to EU Member States for the transposition of their content, the more the preservation of national interests by EU Member States affects the uniform application of directives across the EU. Highlighting the need to go beyond the study of the legal compliance of European directives, the volume offers a new perspective on the interests of member states and European law, bridging the gap between the politics and law of European integration.

It will be of interest to students, academics and practitioners with an interest in EU Law and cybersecurity.
