Course Overview
The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) became applicable on 17 January 2025, which stands as a transformative framework. Its implications are far-reaching, especially for financial institutions navigating complex third-party risk environments. DORA mandates a proactive approach to managing ICT third-party relationships, emphasising the need for robust security, resilience, and compliance.
From that date, all financial entities in its scope will need to have a comprehensive register of their contractual arrangements with ICT third-party service providers available at entity, sub-consolidated and consolidated levels.
In addition, timely identification, assessment, handling and reporting of ICT- related incidents to competent authorities (CySEC, CBC and Superintendent of Insurance), forms a significant challenge for the management of financial entities.
For financial entities, this regulation isn’t just a checklist to tick off; it’s a blueprint for enhancing operational resilience in an increasingly interconnected world.
This course is designed to foster a proactive approach to regulatory compliance, emphasising the importance of diligence, accuracy, and responsiveness in meeting DORA requirements and ensuring regulatory adherence.
