Digital Operational Resilience Act
Prepare Your Organisation for DORA Compliance
The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA)is a critical EU regulation coming into force on 17 January 2025, designed to strengthen the resilience of financial institutions. Its aim is to ensure organisations can withstand, respond to, and recover from operational disruptions, safeguarding both the institution and the broader financial system.
Key Requirements of DORA
DORA goes beyond cyber security, requiring financial institutions to:
Identify and manage ICT risks across internal systems and third-party providers.
Maintain an up-to-date Register of Information, detailing all critical ICT assets and dependencies.
Implement and test incident response plans to ensure operational continuity.
Oversee and manage risks from third-party ICT service providers, such as cloud services and software vendors.
Failing to meet these requirements can result in severe penalties, including fines up to 10% of annual turnover or restrictions on senior executives.
