DORA

DORA is The Digital Operational Resilience Act, a new European compliance requirement (applicable in the UK) to ensure a more robust and resilient approach to delivering digital capabilities for financial entities (financial services organisations).
DORA is focused on the protection, detection, containment, recovery and repair capabilities against IT-related incidents.
However, compliance challenges for organisations are many;
- The DORA documentation is long and complex.
- DORA crosses over both
ITIL and
ISO standards
and this can be tricky to unpick.
- There are
252 obligations to assess for compliance.
- Changes will likely be required to in flight contracts and all supplier contracts will need to be included in a required ‘register of information’.
All in all, the process can be time-consuming and arduous, but with the regulation coming into force in January 2025 compliance has never been more of a priority.
In response, Horizon Seven have launched their operational resilience services and are able to get you compliant quickly, effectively and economically. We provide gap analysis and remediation, creation and maintenance of a register of contractual arrangements and support the negotiation of contract changes that are required.
