DORA is a regulation created by the European Union. It aims to improve the IT security and resilience of financial entities. It does this by guarding against cyber threats and ICT disruptions. DORA applies to many entities in the EU's financial sector and emphasizes the importance of robust digital operational resilience. The act establishes a unified and stringent framework to help financial institutions and their ICT service providers effectively manage and withstand ICT-related disruptions.
DORA helps the financial sector manage growing risks. These risks include technology, increasing cyber-attack threats, and other ICT-related disruptions. DORA aims to strengthen the digital operational resilience of financial entities by requiring them to adopt a comprehensive approach to managing ICT risks. This includes effective incident reporting, resilience testing, third-party risk management, and information sharing. DORA's framework seeks to harmonize existing regulations and create a consistent approach across the financial sector.
DORA affects a broad spectrum of entities within the EU’s financial sector, including but not limited to: Credit institutions; Investment firms; Insurance and reinsurance companies; Pension funds; Crypto-asset service providers; Payment service providers. This approach ensures all key players in finance follow high digital risk standards and can better withstand digital threats.
DORA advances the EU’s digital operational resilience regulation for the financial sector. Yet, it may not be final. Due to technology and cyber threats’ rapid evolution, emerging risks may require updates or new regulations. Regulatory frameworks must adapt to keep pace with new challenges and advancements.
