This course offers a comprehensive overview of the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), the European Union’s landmark legislation designed to strengthen the financial sector’s ability to withstand and recover from ICT-related disruptions. With financial services increasingly reliant on digital infrastructure, DORA creates a harmonized framework for managing cyber risks, operational resilience, and third-party dependencies. Participants will explore the Act’s key components—including incident reporting, resilience testing, ICT third-party risk management, information sharing, and oversight mechanisms—and examine practical applications and case studies that highlight implementation challenges and solutions. The course equips learners with the knowledge and tools to ensure compliance with DORA while enhancing their institution’s operational resilience, safeguarding market integrity, and protecting consumers in an evolving digital landscape.
