Impact of the introduction of the BIO2 for contractors and the Rijksvastgoedbedrijf (RVB) regarding the building-related systems managed by the RVB.
The BIO2 is the mandatory standard framework for information security within the entire Dutch government, based on the ISO 27001 and 27002 standards supplemented with specific government measures.

01What is being requested
The document describes the Baseline Informatiebeveiliging Overheid 2 (BIO2), the mandatory standard framework for information security within all government organizations. The framework provides guidelines, general principles, and mandatory government measures for the design, implementation, maintenance, and improvement of information security within the government and its chains.
The BIO2 (Baseline Informatiebeveiliging Overheid 2) focuses on securing information systems within the government, including building installations such as climate control, access control, fire alarm systems, and energy networks. These systems are increasingly connected to IT networks (IoT, Building Management Systems), making them vulnerable to cyber risks. An attack on these systems can lead to physical consequences, such as disruptions in critical processes, safety risks, or service outages. Building installations fall within the BIO2 scope because they form part of the information system.
02Strategic insight
Ensure that information security is not seen solely as a technical ICT solution, but also encompasses organization and processes. Take into account the mandatory government measures which serve as a minimum standard and cannot be deviated from in a risk analysis without substantiation. Integrate the ISO 27001 structure directly into the proposed working methods to align with the mandatory management system requirements.
