The assessment is conducted in accordance with the principles of the Italian implementation, taking into account the guidance of the National Cybersecurity Agency.

2. NIS2 Compliance Roadmap

   Following the assessment, START4.0 supports the definition of a customized compliance roadmap, which identifies priorities, corrective actions, required investments, and timelines. The roadmap integrates organizational, procedural, and technological aspects and allows organizations to plan compliance progressively and sustainably, aligning security, compliance, and business objectives.
