Home > DORA certification & compliance
Since January 2025, DORA regulations have required financial entities to strengthen their digital operational resilience. At NETSYSTEM, we support you step by step in your DORA audit and compliance, with a tailor-made approach combining cybersecurity, IT risk management, governance and auditing.
DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act) is a detailed and comprehensive regulatory framework on digital operational resilience for financial entities.
Its aim is to ensure business continuity in the event of a major digital incident, through improved IT risk management, robust governance and clear requirements for third-party service providers.
The DORA regulations apply to all regulated financial entities: banks, insurers, fintechs, asset management companies, investment firms, information service providers (ISPs), and so on.
The main objective is to professionalize IT security for financial entities in order to limit risks and guarantee service continuity.
Key issues :
ICT risk management
ICT incident and cyber threat management and reporting
Digital operational resilience testing
ICT service provider risk management
Non-compliance can result in financial penalties, withdrawal of approval or major reputational damage.
But beyond these sanctions, the major risk is of course to jeopardize the entity’s business in the event of a cyber attack.
This depends on your initial level of maturity. On average, full compliance takes between 6 and 12 months.
