The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is poised to reshape the European financial landscape, demanding a robust defense against cyber threats and operational disruptions and Trustwave is putting the pedal to the metal to prepare clients with our DORA Readiness Accelerator service.
The Trustwave DORA Readiness Accelerator, which joins Trustwave’s CMMC readiness and Microsoft Security accelerators, provides a structured approach to achieving compliance and bolstering operational resilience. This accelerator offers a roadmap tailored to each client's specific needs, ensuring a smooth transition and minimized disruption.
With an enforcement date of January 17, 2025, financial entities and their ICT third-party providers must prioritize compliance. This isn't merely a regulatory hurdle; it's an opportunity to fortify operations, enhance security, and build unwavering customer trust. Trustwave, a leading cybersecurity partner endorsed by Microsoft, offers a comprehensive DORA Readiness Accelerator to guide organizations through this complex regulatory landscape.
DORA’s core objective is to enhance the operational resilience of the financial sector. This encompasses a broad spectrum of entities, from traditional banks and payment processors to investment firms and their ICT third-party providers. The regulation establishes five key pillars: 1) ICT risk management, 2) ICT-related incident management, classification, and reporting, 3) digital operational resilience testing, 4) managing of ICT third-party risk, and 5) information sharing arrangements. Non-compliance carries significant financial penalties, including fines of up to 2% of annual global turnover for financial entities and up to €5 million for critical ICT third-party providers.
Trustwave understands the important role that compliance plays in a cybersecurity environment, as being in compliance helps keep an organization safe and protects it from regulatory fines and legal issues.
At Trustwave, our Cyber Advisory team has established methodologies for assessing compliance against a variety of regulations, including HIPAA, CMMC, DORA, GDPR, and CORIE.
Trustwave's approach allows organizations to address specific DORA requirements effectively. The process involves several key stages:
Trustwave's strong partnership with Microsoft further enhances its DORA compliance capabilities. Microsoft offers a suite of tools that target DORA’s requirements, including Microsoft Defender for Cloud, Microsoft Purview, Microsoft 365 Service Health Dashboard, Microsoft Secure Score, and Azure Security Center. Trustwave can help clients leverage these tools effectively through its Accelerators for Microsoft Security service, providing a roadmap to maximize value and security outcomes from Microsoft Security products.
