Think of it as a mandatory seatbelt law, but for your IT systems!<\/p><h2 data-start=\"794\" data-end=\"832\"><strong>Who does this law actually affect?<\/strong><\/h2><p data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"1140\">Here\u2019s where it gets interesting: while the law primarily targets critical sectors, its ripple effects will likely extend far beyond them.
