WHY DORA MATTERS
The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) underscores the importance of robust risk management for financial organisations. Effective from January 17, 2023, DORA mandates financial institutions to align their operations with its requirements by January 17, 2025. This regulation aims to enhance the cyber resilience of financial entities, ensuring they can manage, monitor, and mitigate non-financial risks efficiently
