DORA Compliance with ComplyScore®

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) requires EU financial entities to establish comprehensive frameworks for managing ICT third-party risk. Effective January 2025, DORA mandates documented due diligence, continuous monitoring, and contractual arrangements ensuring operational resilience across vendor relationships.

ComplyScore® automates ICT vendor risk assessments aligned to DORA requirements, maintains continuous monitoring of vendor operational resilience, and generates audit-ready documentation proving systematic third-party risk management for regulatory inspections.
