Continuing to manage cybersecurity efforts using Excel and Word belongs to an era when the abacus and the slide rule were the standard tools for governance. The world has moved on, and the threat landscape is more dynamic and complex than ever. That is the view of Daniel Reinholdsson, CEO of Cyber Defencely.
Cyber Defencely is developing a continuity management tool to help tens of thousands of Swedish organizations meet the requirements of the Cybersecurity Act, which enters into force on 15 January 2026. The tool, developed with support from MCF (MSB) and NCC-SE, will identify critical processes and dependencies and create continuity plans for them.
“When we educate children and young people today, we strengthen society as a whole tomorrow!"’ Emanuel Lipschütz concluded his speech with these words at the HackShield event at the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Sweden
Cyber Defencely is now launching the free tool CyberResilient to help tens of thousands of Swedish organisations meet the requirements of the NIS2 Directive, which forms the basis of the new Cybersecurity Act coming into force in January.
NIS2 will be incorporated into the upcoming Swedish Cybersecurity Act, which is expected to enter into force on January 15, 2026. However, Daniel Reinholdsson from Cyber Defencely argues that the crucial question is almost never asked by politicians or industry representatives: How many organisations are actually prepared to meet the requirements in practice in order to establish proven resilience for Sweden and the EU when the law comes into force?
