The Centre for Digital Security and Societal Resilience, the School of Law at Trinity College Dublin, and the ADAPT Centre recently hosted a roundtable on cyber security regulations affecting Managed Service providers (MSPs) and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) within the supply chain.

Co-organised by Maria Grazia Porcedda and Pauline Meyer (School of Law, Trinity College Dublin)  with Olivia Waters (ADAPT, Trinity College Dublin), the event brought together professionals from across the cybersecurity supply-chain ecosystem to discuss the evolving regulatory landscape. Discussions focused on the challenges and opportunities arising from NIS2, the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), the Digital Omnibus initiative, and the broader Cybersecurity package, alongside potential approaches for effective implementation.

Organisers thanked participants for their valuable expertise and contributions to a constructive debate. Appreciation was also extended to the Business School for hosting the event and to the Swiss National Science Foundation for supporting the initiative through the research project “Regulation of ICT Service Providers in a cybersecurity Perspective under European and Swiss law.”
