What is DORA?
The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is a European regulation that establishes uniform requirements for the operational resilience of ICT systems in the financial sector. It applies to financial entities and their critical ICT third-party service providers.
DORA becomes fully applicable in January 2025 and covers key areas including ICT risk management, third-party risk, resilience testing, incident reporting, and information sharing.
