The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) came into force in January this year, and the financial services businesses affected need to achieve DORA compliance by 17th January 2025.  Delivered by senior experts, this 90-minute forum will reveal some of the key 'Hows' and 'How-nots' for companies who are looking to learn more about this important emerging compliance landscape. 

For the financial sector as well as critical third parties which provide Information Communication Technologies (ICT)-related services to them e.g. cloud platforms, DORA lifts IT security best practice to a new level to enable resilient operations that can withstand, respond to and recover from all types of ICT-related disruptions caused by cyber security incidents and IT issues.

DORA addresses many topics that already apply to Financial Services firms operating in the EU and the UK, while being more prescriptive around ICT and cyber resilience than current UK operational resilience regulation. UK businesses will need to act quickly to determine if they fall in scope of DORA, based on the range of types of financial markets activities included and whether those take place within EU jurisdictions.

This ‘Security Matters’ forum will give you the opportunity to compare your DORA plans with examples of best practice; understand your obligations under the new regulations; and re-evaluate your data security procedures. There will also be an opportunity to put questions to the presenters at the end of the forum.
