The problem

Manual DORA compliance costs time, oversight and certainty

Without structured processes for risk management and reporting it is hard to demonstrate compliance with the DORA regulation. You run the risk of sanctions, tighter supervision and reputational damage.

See how ISPnext solves this ›

Time-consuming manual work

Recording and maintaining policies, risks and supplier information by hand costs an unnecessary amount of time.

No overview of risks

Fragmented data makes it hard to identify and control ICT risks and dependencies in time.

Compliance risks

Without structured reporting and an audit trail, the chance of sanctions, tighter supervision and reputational damage grows.

Separate systems and suppliers

Overseeing ICT suppliers and contracts through separate spreadsheets gives an incomplete picture that is hard to verify.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about DORA and compliance

DORA compliance means that financial institutions and their suppliers meet the requirements of the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). This legislation is designed to strengthen the digital resilience of organizations. It means companies have to demonstrate that they control their IT risks, can withstand cyber threats and can recover quickly from incidents. DORA compliance helps organizations make their digital processes safer, more stable and more transparent.

DORA legislation applies to almost every organization in the financial sector, such as banks, insurers, payment institutions, investment firms and pension funds. Their IT and cloud providers also fall under certain parts of the DORA regulation. In short: every organization that depends on digital systems and operates within the financial chain has to take DORA compliance into account.

The main DORA requirements focus on five pillars:

  1. ICT risk management: organizations have to identify, monitor and control risks.

  2. Incident reporting: cyber incidents have to be reported within clear deadlines.

  3. Digital operational resilience testing: periodic tests to prove cyber resilience.

  4. Third party risk management: stricter oversight of IT service providers.

  5. Information sharing: secure collaboration between financial institutions.

These areas form the core of the DORA compliance obligations.

When organizations fail to comply with DORA, supervisory authorities can step in with binding measures, fines or restrictions on IT services. The risk is not only legal: reputational damage and operational disruption can have a major impact too. DORA legislation is therefore designed to enforce compliance and reduce risk in the market, a crucial part of the Digital Operational Resilience Act.

ISPnext supports organizations in meeting DORA compliance by giving them control over suppliers, contracts and risks. With our solutions, companies can document, assess and monitor their processes better in line with the DORA regulation. Think of centralizing supplier information, automating risk assessments and safeguarding controls around the main DORA requirements. That is how ISPnext helps organizations take an efficient and reliable route to full DORA compliance.

DORA entered into force as European Regulation (EU) 2022/2554 and has applied since 17 January 2025. Financial organizations have had to demonstrate compliance from that date, including for the ICT services they outsource.

You have to keep a register of all ICT service providers, assess how critical each one is and record contractual arrangements on continuity, incident reporting and exit. Critical suppliers also need periodic monitoring, so supplier management is a fixed part of DORA compliance.
