The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is a new European Union regulation, applicable for the Finance and Insurance Industries of EU nations. It is a set of standards and rules around ICT Risk Management. These sectors must comply with DORA in order to safeguard against crisis jeopardising financial markets across the EU. The legislation does not directly apply to the UK, however if a UK based company is engaged with, or seeks to engage with an EU-based company, then it’s very likely that you will need to comply to DORA. The deadline for compliance is January 2025.
The Digital Operational Resiliency Act (DORA) comes into force on 17th January 2025. As we reach just under three months to go, join HANDD to discuss what we’ve learnt thus far and pick through the requirements as they stand.
Expect to gain practical advice from our Lead Solutions Architect Sam Malkin, who has done the reading as well as previously delivered legislation across various sectors including leading financial instituations.
Sam will outline the essential steps your organisation needs to take for compliance and highlight tangible changes to consider before the deadline. If time and resource is an issue, hear how HANDD’s experts can help.
This 30-minute webinar will take place on 23rd October at 11AM BST. An on-demand version will also be available to all registrants.
