LuxConnect’s Shared Cage: Empowering municipalities to enhance resilience and meet NIS2 requirements

LuxConnect, Luxembourg state-owned company, plays a critical role in enhancing Luxembourg’s resilience. With the launch of its shared cage for municipalities, LuxConnect is fulfilling its mission entrusted by the government – helping local administrations safeguard their IT systems and critical data.

Following the recent transposition of the NIS2 Directive into Luxembourg law on October 17th, municipalities face an urgent need to comply with stringent cybersecurity standards. LuxConnect’s shared cage specifically dedicated to municipalities offers an immediate solution by providing a secure data hosting environment in its Tier IV data centers, located in Bettembourg and Bissen. These facilities guarantee 99.995% uptime and full redundancy, ensuring that municipalities can access their data 24/7.

The shared cage service offers municipalities a secure space for their data without imposing any connectivity requirements – they can choose their own connectivity provider. LuxConnect provides the infrastructure but does not intervene in service management, allowing municipalities to retain full control and autonomy over their systems while benefiting from a high level of security and resilience.

In a modern digital landscape, uninterrupted access to critical data is essential for local governments. LuxConnect’s shared cage project ensures that municipalities remain operational and compliant with the highest standards of cybersecurity, without sacrificing autonomy.
