EU Digital Operational Resilience compliance, run as a living system
The Digital Operational Resilience Act sets uniform requirements for the security of network and information systems in the EU financial sector: ICT risk management, incident classification and reporting, digital operational resilience testing, ICT third-party risk management and a register of information.
Who it applies to
EU financial entities including credit institutions, payment and e-money institutions, investment firms, insurers and their critical ICT third-party providers.
What it demands
ICT risk management
Governance framework, board accountability, risk identification, protection and recovery.
Incident reporting
Classification against defined criteria and reporting within the prescribed windows.
Resilience testing
Programme of testing proportionate to the entity, including advanced testing where required.
Third-party risk
Contractual requirements, concentration risk, exit strategies and the register of information.
How Compli-Once runs it
- 1
Incident classification criteria modelled in the workflow, with each reporting window running as its own clock.
- 2
The register of information maintained from the vendor module, so contracts, criticality and exit plans stay one source.
- 3
Testing programmes run as engagements with findings, owners and evidenced closure.
What you already satisfy
EU Digital Operational Resilience overlaps with frameworks you may already run. The crosswalk quantifies existing coverage on day one, before you plan a single task.
Implement once, satisfy many
In a representative demonstration environment, 61% of a newly adopted regulatory framework was already satisfied by the existing ISO 27001 programme.

Frequently asked questions
What does DORA require?
An ICT risk management framework with board accountability, classification and reporting of major ICT incidents within prescribed windows, a resilience testing programme, and managed ICT third-party risk including a register of information.
How is the register of information maintained?
From the vendor module: contracts, criticality, dependencies and exit strategies are held once and reported in the register format, rather than kept as a separate spreadsheet.
How are incident reporting windows handled?
Classification drives which windows apply, and each runs as a timestamped clock on the incident record with owners and notification evidence.
Can DORA run beside UK resilience obligations?
Yes. Overlapping requirements are crosswalked, so groups operating in both jurisdictions implement once and report separately.
