Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

NIS2 is transposed into Belgian law and reaches medium and large entities across essential and important sectors, plus many of their suppliers. Unsure whether you are in scope? We run a short applicability check.

NIS2 compliance service →

A scan is automated and covers known issues broadly. A penetration test is manual and exploit-driven: certified testers chain weaknesses like a real attacker, prove impact and prioritise fixes. Most organisations need both.

Penetration testing →

Most organisations reach ISO 27001 certification in three to nine months, depending on scope and current maturity. With an audit or customer deadline, we work the plan back from it.

ISO 27001 service →

Yes. Curios is based at Franklin Rooseveltplaats 12 in Antwerp (Antwerpen). We work on-site with clients across Belgium and remotely throughout Europe, whichever suits the engagement.
