Simpifying
compliance with EU directives
Enables organizations to align with the NIS2, GDPR directives and the EU AI Act by enforcing strong protection of sensitive data across AI-driven workflows.
Situation with EU directives
To have modern and advaced solution to fulfill EU security compliance requirements is no longer optional - it’s a practical response to the regulatory and operational pressure created by frameworks like the NIS2 directive and EU AI Act.
​
-
These regulations require organizations to actively manage cybersecurity risks, protect sensitive data and ensure rapid incident detection and response. Traditional security tools weren’t designed for AI-driven data flows, especially where large volumes of sensitive information are exchanged with external AI APIs.
​
-
The EU AI Act introduces strict obligations around data governance, transparency and risk classification, particularly for high-risk AI systems. This creates a need for centralized control over how data is shared with AI models, how outputs are handled and how risks are assessed.
​
-
The financial and reputational consequences of non-compliance are significant. With potential fines reaching up to 6% of global turnover, organizations need auditable, automated mechanisms to demonstrate compliance.
Advanced way how to comply with EU directives
Concerned organizations must implement security measures incl. functionalities for secure chat communication to provide:
Risk management - Develop comprehensive systems to assess potential risks arising from AI adoption, particularly where large volumes of data are involved.​
Data security - Maintain the integrity of sensitive and personal data by implementing rigorous protection measures to guard against unauthorized use or breaches.
Incident handling & monitoring - Support continuous, real-time monitoring to detect and address incidents, including risks of data leakage from AI API interactions.
Transparency & reporting - The responsible organizations are accountable for transparently addressing and reporting incidents arising from the processing of sensitive data by artificial intelligence - a key requirement of the EU AI Act, NIS2 and GDPR regulations.
How to ensure Compliance with legal directives
Data leakage protection
A Nex Firewall delivers continuous visibility into API data traffic, enabling immediate identification of suspicious behavior or breaches.
With advanced AI-based detection, organizations are able to:
-
Track and secure data moving through AI APIs
-
Prevent both accidental and intentional data exposure
-
Ensure compliance with EU regulations (NIS2, AI Act, GDPR, etc.) related to incident monitoring and response
Data masking and anonymization
The NIS2 directive and EU AI Act emphasizes and requires organizations to protect sensitive data and personal data from unauthorized use.
A Nex Firewall implement an advanced data masking and anonymization tools to ensure:
-
Personal and sensitive information are anonymized or masked before being sent to public AI models for processing, in order to eliminate the risk of its leakage and potential misuse
-
Ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive information being processed, without significantly impacting the performance of the AI model in use
-
Simple implementation of anonymization tools into the existing IT environment via a straightforward AI API to ensure compliance with current EU legislation
Risk management & assessment
A Nex Firewall enables organizations to conduct ongoing risk assessments of their API infrastructure in compliance with EU regulations (NIS2, the AI Act, GDPR, etc.) regarding proactive risk management.
​
With our solution, organizations can:​
-
Identify vulnerabilities in generative AI API endpoints
-
Provide actionable insights to strengthen API security
-
Ensure a structured approach to meeting risk management requirements
AI API usage control
For organizations deploying AI solutions is important that the deployment is cost-effective and fully under their control.
​
For this reason, the Nex Firewall platform offers several options:
-
A detailed overview of API usage costs
-
Analysis of AI data usage patterns to ensure compliance with data protection and processing requirements
-
Tools for setting usage limits and preventing unnecessary expenses
-
Optimization of API consumption while complying with NIS2 requirements
Compliance reporting
To ensure compliance with some EU directives (NIS2, GDPR, etc), security incidents must be reported properly and in a timely manner.
To meet these requirements, Nex Firewall offers the following:​
-
Automating the generation of incident reports and relevant documentation with detailed analytics
-
·Providing and maintaining an audit trials with compliance summaries for audits and regulatory inspections
-
Enabling faster communication with stakeholders during critical incidents
