DORA Compliance Services for EU Financial Institutions

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) mandates that EU financial entities and their critical ICT third-party providers strengthen their operational resilience against cyber threats. CyberSilo's comprehensive DORA compliance solutions automate ICT risk management, incident reporting, and third-party oversight, ensuring your organisation meets every regulatory deadline with confidence.

What DORA Demands From Your Organisation

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (Regulation EU 2022/2554) is the most comprehensive operational resilience framework ever imposed on the EU financial sector. It applies to banks, investment firms, payment institutions, insurance companies, credit institutions, and their critical ICT third-party providers. Unlike traditional compliance regimes that focus on data privacy, DORA targets the entire ICT lifecycle — from risk management and incident reporting to digital operational resilience testing and third-party oversight.

With enforcement beginning 17 January 2025, financial entities must demonstrate robust ICT risk management frameworks under Article 6, maintain continuous threat detection and response capabilities under Article 10, and report major ICT incidents within four hours under Article 19. CyberSilo's ThreatHawk SIEM and Agentic SOC AI solutions are purpose-built to automate these requirements, reducing manual effort by up to 70% while ensuring full regulatory alignment.

Our Compliance Standards Automation platform maps every DORA article to actionable controls, enabling your team to focus on strategic resilience rather than administrative overhead. Whether you are a global bank in Frankfurt or a fintech in Dublin, CyberSilo delivers the technological foundation for DORA compliance without compromising operational agility.
