About the Regulation

The EU Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) ties financial institutions' IT risk management, incident notification and third-party (vendor) risk management into a comprehensive framework.

We build a risk assessment framework for your critical IT vendors and ensure it's reviewed regularly.
No, we recommend extending your existing risk and compliance functions to meet DORA requirements; a separate structure isn't required.
Some advanced tests (threat-led penetration testing - TLPT) must be run by independent, authorized test providers; we guide you through this process too.
