Assess Once, Comply to Many
Harmonized EU Requirements
Apply a common digital operational resilience framework across 20 categories of EU financial entities.
Operational Resilience
Strengthen the ability to prevent, withstand, respond to, and recover from ICT disruptions.
Incident Reporting Readiness
Establish processes to identify, classify, escalate, and report major ICT-related incidents in accordance with DORA’s regulatory notification and reporting requirements.
Managed Third-Party Risk
Improve ICT provider due diligence, contracting, monitoring, register-of-information maintenance, concentration-risk management, and exit planning.
What is DORA?
DORA covers six connected areas: ICT risk management, ICT-related incident management and reporting, digital operational resilience testing, ICT third-party risk management, information sharing on cyber threats, and EU oversight of designated critical ICT third-party service providers (CTPPs). It applies to 20 categories of financial entities, while only formally designated CTPPs are directly overseen at the EU level. For DORA-covered financial entities, DORA replaces the corresponding NIS2 ICT risk management and incident reporting requirements; NIS2 may still apply to other group entities or services.
Who Should Consider a DORA Assessment?
EU financial entities should assess their compliance with DORA and the applicable regulatory and implementing technical standards. Cloud providers, data centers, software providers, MSPs, MSSPs, BPOs, and other ICT providers supporting EU financial entities should assess their contractual and operational readiness to meet customer obligations under DORA. A service provider is not automatically a directly regulated CTPP; direct oversight applies only following formal designation by the European Supervisory Authorities. The ESAs published the first list of designated CTPPs on November 18, 2025, and designated providers are subject to oversight by their assigned Lead Overseers.
