Beyond the voucher: NIS2, AI Act, Cyber Resilience Act
For companies subject to the NIS2 Directive, the AI Act or the Cyber Resilience Act, Paradigma starts with a gap analysis and takes the company all the way to compliance. The voucher can fund the technology; the regulatory path follows the method of our ISO/IEC 27001 system.
The voucher funds the technology; regulatory consulting is a Paradigma service.
NIS2
Strengthens the cybersecurity of essential and important entities in 18 sectors, including ICT and cloud providers and their supply chain. It requires registration with ACN, security measures and incident management.
Next deadline: obligations phased in according to ACN decisions.
AI Act
Classifies artificial intelligence systems by risk level. It sets obligations for those who develop them and those who use them: transparency, technical documentation, human oversight and staff AI literacy.
Next deadline: high-risk systems in Annex III from 2/12/2027.
Cyber Resilience Act
Introduces cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements, software included, across their whole life cycle. Vulnerability reporting is mandatory from 11/9/2026.
Next deadline: full application from 11/12/2027.
Frequently asked questions about the Cloud and Cybersecurity Voucher
Answers to the questions business owners, accountants and IT managers ask us most often about the Cloud and Cybersecurity Voucher. They are up to date with the MIMIT FAQ of 12 October 2026; for special cases the Ministry's official documentation prevails.
Micro, small and medium-sized enterprises and self-employed professionals with a VAT number, anywhere in Italy. Each applicant can submit only one application. The grant covers 50% of eligible costs, falls under the de minimis regime and requires an expense plan of at least €4,000.
The grant is non-repayable and covers 50% of eligible costs, up to a maximum of €20,000. The minimum expense plan is €4,000. Configuration, monitoring and support can make up at most 30% of the plan: the rest must be technology, meaning security, cloud or software.
SPID or CIE of the legal representative, certified email (PEC) and a digital signature. You need a fixed connection of at least 30 Mbps download and, for SMEs, the catastrophic risk insurance required by Law 213/2023. You need available de minimis headroom, and no purchase may be made before the application is submitted.
Yes, if the solution falls within the eligible categories: for example an e-commerce site or a web app in the cloud, with the related infrastructure and configuration and support services. Each item must match an eligible service: Paradigma checks eligibility with you before the quote is signed.
No. Consulting without implementation is excluded, as is training. The voucher can fund the technology that helps with NIS2 compliance, such as backup, monitoring and vulnerability management.
