Recital 8
Recital 8
(8) In accordance with Directive (EU) 2016/1148, Member States were responsible for determining which entities meet the criteria to qualify as operators of essential services (‘identification process’). In order to eliminate the wide divergences among Member States in that regard and ensure legal certainty for the risk management requirements and reporting obligations for all relevant entities, a uniform criterion should be established that determines the entities falling within the scope of application of this Directive. That criterion should consist of the application of the size-cap rule, whereby all medium and large enterprises, as defined by Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC15 , that operate within the sectors or provide the type of services covered by this Directive, fall within its scope. Member States should not be required to establish a list of the entities that meet this generally applicable size- related criterion. Nevertheless, taking into account the difference in composition of public administration in the Member States, the identification process provided in Directive (EU) 2016/1148 remains an appropriate mechanism to determine which public administration entities should fall under the scope of this Directive. _________________ 15 Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC of 6 May 2003 concerning the definition of micro, small and medium- sized enterprises (OJ L 124, 20.5.2003, p. 36).

(8a) Taking into consideration the differences in the national public administration frameworks, Member States retain full decision-making autonomy regarding the question of whether to identify public administration entities and if Member States decided to do so which entities are to be identified. It would also be possible to foresee in the national legislation that particular categories of public administration entities are identified as falling under the scope of this Directive. Member States should also be able to structure the obligations for public administration entities regarding security requirements, incident notification, supervision and sanctions.

Recital 11
(11) Depending on the sector in which they operate or the type of service they provide, the entities falling within the scope of this Directive should be classified into twohree categories: essential and, important, and public administration. That categorisation should take into account the level of criticality of the sector or of the type of service, as well as the level of dependency of other sectors or types of services. Both eEssential and important entities and public administration entities should be subject to the same risk management requirements and reporting obligations. Member States should have right to exclude obligations for public administration entities. The supervisory and penalty regimes between these two categories ofessential and important entities should be differentiated to ensure a fair balance between requirements and obligations on one hand, and the administrative burden stemming from the supervision of compliance on the other hand. The supervisory and penalty regimes for public administration entities should be foreseen in line with the national legislation and legal system.

Recital 20 a (new)
(20a) It is crucial to raise the cyber awareness and resilience in public administration entities. At the same time it is also essential to take into account the specificities of the composition of national public administrations. Therefore Member States should be given a flexibility to decide if and which public administration entities should be covered by this Directive and should have right to exclude select obligations for these entities. Identification of public administration entities should be at the individual Member State’s sole discretion.

Recital 21
(21) In view of the differences in national governance structures and in order to safeguard already existing sectoral arrangements or Union supervisory and regulatory bodies, Member States should be able to designate more than one national competent authority responsible for fulfilling the tasks linked to the security of the network and information systems of essential and important entities and public administration entities under this Directive. Member States should be able to assign this role to an existing authority.

Recital 42
(42) Essential and important entities and public administration entities should ensure the security of the network and information systems which they use in their activities. Those are primarily private network and information systems managed by their internal IT staff or the security of which has been outsourced. The cybersecurity risk management and reporting requirements pursuant to this Directive should apply to the relevant essential and important entities and public administration entities regardless of whether they perform the maintenance of their network and information systems internally or outsource it.

(46) To further address key supply chain risks and assist entities operating in sectors covered by this Directive and public administration entities to appropriately manage supply chain and supplier related cybersecurity risks, the Cooperation Group involving relevant national authorities, in cooperation with the Commission and ENISA, should carry out coordinated sectoral supply chain risk assessments, as was already done for 5G networks following Recommendation (EU) 2019/534 on Cybersecurity of 5G networks21 , with the aim of identifying per sector which are the critical ICT services, systems or products, relevant threats and vulnerabilities. _________________ 21Commission Recommendation (EU) 2019/534 of 26 March 2019 Cybersecurity of 5G networks (OJ L 88, 29.3.2019, p. 42).

Recital 47
(47) The supply chain risk assessments, in light of the features of the sector concerned, should take into account both technical and, where relevant, non- technical factors including those defined in Recommendation (EU) 2019/534, in the EU wide coordinated risk assessment of 5G networks security and in the EU Toolbox on 5G cybersecurity agreed by the Cooperation Group. To identify the supply chains that should be subject to a coordinated risk assessment, the following criteria should be taken into account: (i) the extent to which essential and important entities and public administration entities use and rely on specific critical ICT services, systems or products; (ii) the relevance of specific critical ICT services, systems or products for performing critical or sensitive functions, including the processing of personal data; (iii) the availability of alternative ICT services, systems or products; (iv) the resilience of the overall supply chain of ICT services, systems or products against disruptive events and (v) for emerging ICT services, systems or products, their potential future significance for the entities’ activities.

(48a) Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) often lack the scale and resources to fulfil abroad and growing range of cybersecurity needs in an interconnected world with an increase of remote work. Member States should therefore address in their national cybersecurity strategies guidance and support for SMEs.

Recital 51
(51) The internal market is more reliant on the functioning of the internet than ever before. The services of virtually all essential and important entities and public administration entities are dependent on services provided over the internet. In order to ensure the smooth provision of services provided by essential and important entities and public administration entities, it is important that public electronic communications networks, such as, for example, internet backbones or submarine communications cables, have appropriate cybersecurity measures in place and report incidents in relation thereto.
Amendment 122 #

Recital 56
Recital 56
(56) Essential and important entities and public administration entities are often in a situation where a particular incident, because of its features, needs to be reported to various authorities as a result of notification obligations included in various legal instruments. Such cases create additional burdens and may also lead to uncertainties with regard to the format and procedures of such notifications. In view of this and, for the purposes of simplifying the reporting of security incidents, Member States should establish a single entry point for all notifications required under this Directive and also under other Union law such as Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Directive 2002/58/EC. ENISA, in cooperation with the Cooperation Group should develop common notification templates by means of guidelines that would simplify and streamline the reporting information requested by Union law and decrease the burdens for companies.

Recital 57
(57) Where it is suspected that an incident is related to serious criminal activities under Union or national law, Member States should encourage essential and important entities and public administration entities, on the basis of applicable criminal proceedings rules in compliance with Union law, to report incidents of a suspected serious criminal nature to the relevant law enforcement authorities. Where appropriate, and without prejudice to the personal data protection rules applying to Europol, it is desirable that coordination between competent authorities and law enforcement authorities of different Member States be facilitated by the EC3 and ENISA.

Recital 63
(63) All essential and important entities under this Directive should fall under the jurisdiction of the Member State where they provide their services. If the entity provides services in more than one Member State, it should fall under the separate and concurrent jurisdiction of each of these Member States. The competent authorities of these Member States should cooperate, provide mutual assistance to each other and where appropriate, carry out joint supervisory actions. Public administration entities shall fall under the jurisdiction of the Member State in which they were identified pursuant to Article 2a.

Recital 70
(70) In order to strengthen the supervisory powers and actions that help ensure effective compliance, this Directive should provide for a minimum list of supervisory actions and means through which competent authorities may supervise essential and important entities. In addition, this Directive should establish a differentiation of supervisory regime between essential and important entities with a view to ensuring a fair balance of obligations for both entities and competent authorities. Thus, essential entities should be subject to a fully-fledged supervisory regime (ex-ante and ex-post), while important entities should be subject to a light supervisory regime, ex-post only. For the latter, this means that important entities should not document systematically compliance with cybersecurity risk management requirements, while competent authorities should implement a reactive ex -post approach to supervision and, hence, not have a general obligation to supervise those entities. When it comes to public administration entities the supervisory powers should be executed in line with the national frameworks and it should be up to Member States discretion to impose suitable measures of supervision and enforcement.
