Automate DORA Compliance
Meet Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) requirements with AttackIQ’s automated security testing, powered by the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
What is DORA Compliance?
The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) mandates stringent cybersecurity measures for EU financial institutions and ICT providers, requiring full DORA compliance by January 17, 2025. By enforcing standards for risk management, incident reporting, and regular security testing, DORA strengthens digital resilience, helping organizations maintain operational continuity against cyber threats. This framework not only impacts financial entities but also extends to third-party providers critical to the financial sector.
Threat-Led Approach
The regulation emphasizes threat-led penetration testing, meaning testers consider real-world attacker behaviors to design their tests.
Mandated Testing
DORA mandates annual penetration testing for critical applications and systems, with advanced threat-led testing required every three years.
Critical Focus
Penetration testing needs to cover at least the critical functions and services of a financial entity.
Live Production Systems
DORA specifies that threat-led penetration testing should be performed on live production systems supporting critical functions.
