Country notes for your CDC

Registration and reporting via the Safeonweb@Work portal. Belgium's CyFun® framework (mapped to NIST CSF) is an accepted route to demonstrate compliance — highly compatible with this framework's structure.

Standard checklist (all countries)

  • [ ] Applicability determined per legal entity and sector; recorded in the regulatory applicability register (GOVERN)
  • [ ] Entity registration completed with the national authority where required
  • [ ] Incident-reporting procedure drilled against the national channel and the 24 h early-warning clock (RESPOND)
  • [ ] Contact established with the national CSIRT before the first incident
  • [ ] Data protection authority contact and GDPR Art. 33 flow prepared (runs in parallel with NIS2 reporting)
  • [ ] National guidance/frameworks mapped to your control evidence (see note above)
