ENISA (European Union Agency for Cybersecurity)

In telecommunications, ENISA is the EU agency that supports member states and operators with cybersecurity guidance, including specific technical guidelines on telecom security, 5G risk assessment, and incident reporting harmonization under the EECC and NIS2.

Categories: Regulation and Compliance

ENISA in context

Telecom regulation is fragmenting: NIS2 and the CER Directive in the EU, the Telecoms Security Act in the UK, sector rules in the US, GCC and APAC, plus horizontal frameworks like GDPR and DORA. Operators need control-level mappings between technical baselines (GSMA FS.11/FS.19) and each jurisdictional obligation.

To place ENISA in the wider telecom-security picture, review NIS2 Directive, CER Directive, NRA, NSA, EECC and BEREC.
