Single-entry point

Unified platform for cross-regulatory incident reporting.

How the laws define this

Both sources establish the core function of a single-entry point as a centralized reporting mechanism designed to eliminate duplicate reporting and facilitate cross-border coordination or incident handling. However, the frameworks differ in their specified management, scope, and objectives. Under the Digital Omnibus Package — Simplifying EU Digital Rules on AI, Cybersecurity, and Data, the mechanism is a centralized reporting interface managed by ENISA that enables entities to submit one notification fulfilling cybersecurity and breach duties across NIS2, DORA, CER, GDPR, and the EU Digital Identity Regulation by consolidating procedural rules and standardizing technical reporting. Conversely, the Commission Cybersecurity Resilience and Capabilities Package 2026 frames the single-entry reporting point as a proposed centralized mechanism focused specifically on receiving incident reports to build situational awareness and assist incident handling across Member States and EU bodies, without attributing its management to ENISA or explicitly listing those five underlying regulatory regimes.

Synthesised from the 2 statutory definitions below. Each one is quoted in full, with its source.
