Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA)
Deployments
A Government organisation needed to manage its software assets such as applications, databases and operating systems deployed across their network, monitor software versions and deploy latest patches to vulnerabilities.
One of our vulnerability management solutions was implemented to provide asset information, and scan and report on vulnerabilities in their applications. The solution is used to package and deploy the latest patches to ensure there are no back door holes for hackers to exploit in their most critical applications.
A Government Organisation
A large Commercial Banking organisation needed help with controlling access to secure servers giving end users access to PCI data on remote Linux/Unix servers in a controlled way.
HANDD used an Identity solution connecting user identity to the secure access method to tie user access back to Active Directory and give the company control over unauthorised access, and visibility over all sessions and connections within the organisation.
A Large Commercial Bank
A Global Pharmaceutical Company needed data classified so it could be protected using downstream technologies such as DLP and Data Governance.
We introduced a system that injected metadata tags into emails and documents to enable DLP to stop sensitive classified content from leaving the building and raise user awareness with clear visual markers on documents.

To combat new cyber risks targeting banking and financial institutions, the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is a new regulatory framework aimed at safeguarding against ICT risk within financial institutions across the UK and Europe.
DORA applies to most financial or insurance institutions, and affected organisations have until 17th January 2025 to become compliant. View our DORA introductory guide to learn more about which companies DORA applies to.
HANDD Business Solutions is experienced in helping banks and financial institutions navigate the complexities of new cyber regulation, and DORA is no exception. Our experienced team of cyber-risk specialists can help you find and identify non-compliant areas of your business in preparation for the full launch of DORA in 2025.

DORA is structured around five core pillars aimed at addressing different areas of risk reduction and strengthening ICT resiliency:
- ICT Risk Management
- Classification & Reporting of ICT-Related Incidents
- ICT Third-Party Risk Management
- Digital Operational Resilience Testing
- Information sharing arrangements on cyber threat information and intelligence

By assessing your existing technological risk environment, HANDD consultants can help you identify where your current procedures or infrastructure may fall short against the new regulatory requirements, assisting in defining a strategy to meet DORA regulation ahead of the January 2025 deadline.
As well as providing guidance and strategies for risk-reduction across your organisation, we partner with some of the world’s leading cybersecurity product vendors to implement new products and solutions designed to support the latest regulatory frameworks such as DORA and GDPR.

DORA will set the requirements for financial services and insurance firms in the UK and Europe to meet a range of new rules surrounding ICT risk management.
In our experience, preparing for new regulatory frameworks should be done well in advance of the regulatory deadline to avoid delays or the risk of fines. We can support you in meeting the DORA requirements before the January 2025 deadline, by:
- Analysing your existing risk management practices to identify gaps and non-compliant areas.
- Ensuring that your incident management and reporting processes are appropriate and compliant.
- Supporting you with advice, sourcing and implementation across a wide range of leading cybersecurity products and solutions designed to help you meet DORA regulations.
