DORA – Digital Operational Resilience Act

Benefit from proven use cases and strengthen your Contract Lifecycle Management

Is the Digital Operational Resilience Act, DORA for short, a suitable means to strengthen IT safety in Europe’s financial sector? Or is it merely yet another legal requirement further increasing costs and complexities within the operational infrastructure of companies?

The simple truth:
it is not worth pondering too much as DORA comes into force, at any rate, from 17 January 2025. And the clock is ticking.

To which EU companies does DORA apply to?

  • Banks
  • Insurance companies
  • Investment companies
  • ICT service providers in the finance sector

What does the deadline 17 January 2025 mean exactly?

As of this date, regulators expect financial entities to comply with the requirements set out by DORA.
