DORA Compliance Services

Achieve DORA Compliance Now

DORA is now in effect and reshaping how financial entities manage ICT risk. We help you close compliance gaps, implement robust ICT risk management frameworks, and demonstrate regulatory readiness.

DORA Compliance Challenges

New Regulatory Landscape

DORA introduces comprehensive requirements that many organizations haven't encountered before.

ICT Risk Management Gaps

Existing frameworks may not meet DORA's specific requirements for identification, protection, detection, response, and recovery.

Third-Party Concentration

Critical ICT service providers create dependencies that DORA requires you to actively manage and report.

Incident Reporting

New mandatory reporting requirements with tight timelines require robust detection and response capabilities.

Testing Requirements

DORA mandates threat-led penetration testing and resilience testing that many organizations haven't implemented.

Cross-Border Complexity

Pan-EU requirements add complexity for organizations operating across multiple jurisdictions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, DORA has been in effect since January 17, 2025. Financial entities must now demonstrate full compliance with ICT risk management, incident reporting, and third-party oversight requirements.

DORA applies to most financial entities including banks, insurers, investment firms, crypto-asset providers, and their critical ICT service providers.

DORA is sector-specific for financial services and takes precedence. However, compliance efforts can be aligned with NIS2 and other frameworks.

National competent authorities can impose significant fines and sanctions. Critical ICT providers face EU-level oversight with potential penalties up to 1% of global daily turnover.
