NIS2 Software: Compliance Evidence That Keeps Pace

Docusnap365 connects inventory, risk management and vulnerability matching on a shared data base, so your NIS2 evidence comes from ongoing operations rather than a separate project.

NIS2 implementation

What NIS2 software does for your compliance

NIS2 software supports directive implementation by inventorying the IT estate without an agent and feeding the resulting asset data into a risk register, vulnerability matching and an evidence trail. Instead of running NIS2 as a standalone compliance project, inventory, risk assessment, remediation planning and evidence all run on the same CMDB and produce auditable records continuously.

Challenge

Why NIS2 compliance stalls in day-to-day operations

Most organisations understand what NIS2 requires. The real difficulty is sustaining compliance alongside the daily workload, using the tools and processes already in place.

Data spread across systems

Asset records, risk assessments and remediation logs live in different tools. Assembling the current picture takes hours, and the result is outdated as soon as the next change lands.

Vulnerabilities without context

CVE advisories arrive daily. Without an automatic match against your actual software estate, it stays unclear which vulnerabilities are relevant and which systems are affected.

Compliance treated as a project

Before the audit, evidence gets assembled. Afterwards, documents go stale. A periodic sprint produces a point-in-time snapshot, not a continuous process.

How it works

Three steps to your NIS2 evidence base

Step 1

Inventory the IT estate

The Docusnap Enterprise Gateway (DEG) is installed on-premises and scans your environment without an agent, using standard protocols such as WMI, SSH and SNMP. No software is installed on target systems. Scan results flow automatically into your personal cloud CMDB.

Step 2

Map risks and vulnerabilities

In the ISMS module you record and assess risks directly against the inventoried assets. The automatic vulnerability matching checks known CVEs against your actual software versions, so only relevant hits appear.

Step 3

Maintain and present evidence

Every remediation measure gets an owner, a status and a due date. Completed measures double as the compliance evidence. Controlled SmartDocs document policies with versioning, an approval workflow and a signed PDF export, exactly as auditors expect.

What Docusnap365 covers for your NIS2 compliance

The NIS2 Directive demands measures across several domains at once. Docusnap365 brings the relevant capabilities together on a single data base: the CMDB.

Risk register with asset mapping

Risks are mapped directly to real assets from the CMDB. Risk matrices visualise likelihood and impact. The result is a risk register grounded in your actual estate.

CVE vulnerability matching

Docusnap365 automatically matches known CVEs against your inventoried software and its versions. Only hits that actually affect your estate are shown. Every vulnerability gets a remediation deadline and an owner.

Audit frameworks

NIS2 and ISO 27001 come as built-in frameworks. Controls can be assessed individually and linked across frameworks, making it visible which measure contributes to more than one standard. The audit and compliance module gives you a completeness overview at any time.

Permission analysis

The permission analysis evaluates file, share and group permissions in the Windows file system. Two directions of analysis show what an account can reach and who has access to a given resource. Nested groups and inherited rights are displayed graphically.

Controlled documentation

SmartDocs produce policies and security concepts as controlled documents with a defined approval workflow. Every version is traceable, and a visual diff shows exactly what changed between two revisions. The signed PDF export makes documents externally verifiable.

Remediation tracking

Every measure carries an owner, a status and a due date. The task centre consolidates tasks from ISMS, vulnerability analysis and ITAM in a single view. Completed measures serve as documented compliance evidence at the same time.

AI query

Ask your evidence base

The built-in AI chat in Docusnap365 answers questions about your environment in plain language. The answers come from the CMDB, from the risk register, vulnerability matching and remediation tracking.

Which servers are running at the Munich site?

Which Windows servers are out of support?

Seven servers run Windows Server 2012 R2, support ended in October 2023.

Who has access to the finance share?

18 accounts across three groups, four of them with full access.

Which systems have had no update for 30 days?

96 clients and five servers have had no update for more than 30 days.

Where is SQL Server 2016 still running?

Four instances on three servers, two of them holding ERP databases.

Platform

More modules from Docusnap365

NIS2 is one piece of the picture. Docusnap365 offers additional modules that run on the same CMDB and connect your IT documentation, asset management and security processes.

ISMS

Risk management, remediation tracking and policies on one data base. Risks are tied to real assets; measures have owners and deadlines.

Vulnerability management

Automatic CVE matching against the inventoried estate. Triage, deadlines and conscious acceptance are documented and audit-ready.

Audit & Compliance

Built-in frameworks for ISO 27001 and NIS2. Linked controls show which measure contributes to more than one standard.

IT documentation

Automatic inventory, network plans and CMDB. On-premises and cloud environments in the same documentation.

Frequently asked questions about NIS2 software from Docusnap365

What does NIS2 software from Docusnap365 cover?

Docusnap365 covers the areas that require operational tooling for NIS2 implementation: agentless IT inventory, risk management with asset mapping, automatic CVE vulnerability matching, permission analysis, controlled documentation with an approval workflow, and cross-module remediation tracking. All capabilities run on the same CMDB.

How does the automatic CVE vulnerability matching work?

Docusnap365 matches known CVEs from publicly available vulnerability databases against your inventoried software and its versions. Only hits affecting software that is actually installed are shown. Every vulnerability receives a remediation deadline, an owner and a documented assessment.

Is Docusnap365 sufficient for NIS2 conformity on its own?

Docusnap365 supplies the structured data, evidence and processes you use to demonstrate NIS2 conformity to auditors. It does not certify and does not conduct audits. Responsibility for meeting the directive stays with the organisation. Docusnap365 ensures that the risk register, measures and evidence are structured and ready when the auditor arrives.

Which compliance frameworks does Docusnap365 support?

In addition to NIS2, ISO 27001, GDPR and BSI Cloud Computing Compliance Criteria Catalogue (C5) are available as built-in frameworks. Controls can be assessed individually and linked across frameworks, making it clear which measure contributes to more than one standard.

How does Docusnap365 obtain the asset data?

The Docusnap Enterprise Gateway (DEG) is installed on-premises and scans the environment without an agent, using standard protocols (WMI, SSH, SNMP). No software is installed on target systems. Credentials remain in the DEG and are not transmitted to the cloud. The only requirement is an outbound HTTPS connection.

Can Docusnap365 integrate with existing systems?

Docusnap365 provides a bidirectional REST API and an MCP interface (Model Context Protocol) for connecting your own tools. Data can be exported in standard formats and imported via CSV or Excel. Basic knowledge of REST and JSON is required for API and MCP integrations.
