UAE Cybersecurity Compliance Checker
Assess your organisation's compliance with UAE National Electronic Security Authority (NESA) Information Assurance Standards, Dubai ISR and UAE Cybersecurity Council Framework 2021. Specifically designed for the UAE regulatory environment — not EU NIS2.
Important: UAE cybersecurity operates under a completely different framework to EU NIS2. Penalties under UAE Cybersecurity Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 34 of 2021) reach up to AED 3,000,000 for critical infrastructure operators. Dubai government entities are additionally subject to the Dubai ISR framework administered by TDRA.
