German companies face new NIS2 documentation duties, Validato offers compliance platform

The EU NIS2 directive requires affected firms to not only implement security measures but also keep complete documentation of technical, organisational and personnel controls, including background checks. In Germany, companies must be able to prove when, how and on what legal basis any screening of new hires for sensitive roles was performed, otherwise they risk regulatory penalties.

Validato AG provides a documentation system that creates audit‑trail‑ready records, structured screening reports and automated alerts for risk changes, marketed as a solution tailored to German IT‑security law requirements.
