Safer Internet Day is a global initiative that promotes a safer and more responsible use of digital technologies. In a context marked by rising cyberattacks, rapid digitalization, and stronger European regulation, cybersecurity and compliance have become essential pillars for ensuring trust in the online environment.
At METRICA, we understand that digital security depends not only on technology, but also on regulatory compliance, risk management, and a strong organizational culture.
Internet Security and Regulatory Compliance: A Strategic Approach
Using the Internet securely requires integrating technical controls, oversight processes, and internal policies aligned with applicable regulations. Within the European Union framework, regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the NIS2 Directive, and the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) reinforce the need for a structured cyber compliance approach.
This approach involves:
- Continuously assessing and managing digital risks in connected environments.
- Ensuring the protection of personal data and online privacy.
- Embedding information security by design in systems and services.
- Maintaining access controls and traceability of digital activities.
- Promoting a culture of compliance and due diligence across the organization.
Combining these elements helps reduce vulnerabilities, prevent incidents, and strengthen organizational digital resilience.
Cyber Compliance in the EU: NIS2, GDPR, and DORA as Key Frameworks
The evolution of the European regulatory landscape has raised the bar for digital security and risk management:
- NIS2 strengthens cybersecurity risk management and incident reporting requirements for essential and important entities.
- GDPR establishes clear obligations regarding personal data protection, accountability, and appropriate security measures.
- DORA enhances digital operational resilience in the financial sector, with a strong focus on ICT risk management.
Compliance with these regulations not only helps avoid penalties, but also strengthens trust, corporate reputation, and business continuity.
METRICA’s Commitment to Cybersecurity and Compliance
At METRICA, we approach cybersecurity and regulatory compliance as a strategic commitment. Our internal compliance and digital risk management policy is supported by internationally recognized standards that ensure quality, security, and integrity in our services:
- ISO 20000-1, IT Service Management System

These certifications validate our structured approach to IT service management, information protection, and regulatory compliance.
A Culture of Compliance for a Safer Internet
Safer Internet Day reminds us that online security is a shared responsibility. Technology, processes, and people must work together to build safer, more reliable, and more resilient digital environments.
At METRICA, we integrate cybersecurity and compliance as core elements of digital transformation, promoting best practices that reinforce trust across the European digital ecosystem.
Because a safer Internet starts with every organization’s commitment.
