In today’s digital age, robust cybersecurity and operational resilience are crucial for business success. The European Union’s Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), effective from January 17 2025, aims to enhance the resilience of financial organisations by including Information and Communications Technology (ICT) functions. DORA sets stringent requirements for managing and mitigating digital operation risks, ensuring organisations are better equipped to handle ICT-related threats. 

Compliance with DORA is essential for effective digital risk management. The regulation mandates comprehensive measures for identifying, assessing, and managing ICT risks, including rigorous oversight of third-party service providers to maintain the integrity and security of digital infrastructure. Achieving DORA compliance involves implementing robust risk management frameworks, conducting regular testing and reporting, and establishing clear protocols for incident response and recovery to swiftly address and recover from disruptions or breaches. 

For businesses aiming to align with DORA, staying informed about regulatory updates and integrating compliance measures into operational strategies is crucial. This not only safeguards operations but also enhances overall resilience in an increasingly digital world. Navigating DORA compliance can be complex, but with the right strategies and support, organisations can meet regulatory requirements while strengthening their digital resilience.
