Our comprehensive readiness assessment helps organizations determine their current level of compliance with the European Union’s Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). Through a series of focused evaluations, we identify how well you are prepared for regulatory compliance.
We investigate your organization's structure, current processes, and IT ecosystem. Through conversations with key stakeholders, we gain a comprehensive understanding of operational vulnerabilities, technology setups, and risk management procedures.
Once we have a bird's-eye view of your organization, our CISO team conducts a thorough gap analysis against DORA requirements. By examining how your current operations align with regulatory standards, we highlight areas of strong compliance and critical points that need improvement.
Armed with our findings, we create a detailed report that clearly shows your DORA compliance status. This document highlights every layer of risk, pinpoints compliance strengths, and indicates any opportunities for improvement, all mapped to the exact demands of the regulation.
Based on the insights uncovered, we craft a tailored roadmap for meeting DORA requirements. From technology upgrades to refined processes and policy enhancements, our step-by-step recommendations ensure you have everything you need for full DORA compliance.

A DORA readiness assessment is a structured evaluation of an organization’s current cybersecurity and operational resilience practices against the requirements set out by the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). It identifies how well your existing processes, controls, and policies align with the regulation.
By pinpointing vulnerabilities and strengths, a DORA readiness assessment helps you avoid regulatory fines, bolster your security posture, and maintain customer trust. It ensures you’re prepared to meet DORA’s stringent operational resilience standards.
The main goals of DORA readiness assessment are identifying compliance gaps, recommending improvements, and providing a roadmap for aligning your systems, processes, and policies with DORA’s requirements, ultimately reducing risk and enhancing resilience.
The assessment compares your organization’s current practices against each relevant DORA requirement through interviews, documentation reviews, and technical evaluations. This process highlights exactly where you meet standards—and where you fall short.
Typically, it’s carried out by cybersecurity and compliance experts familiar with EU regulations. Internal teams can be involved, but external specialists often bring a fresh perspective and the latest regulatory insights.
Assessments cover your governance structure, IT infrastructure, risk management frameworks, incident response plans, and vendor oversight processes—all of which must align with DORA’s operational resilience criteria.
The timeline varies based on organizational size and complexity, but most assessments range from a few weeks to a couple of months, ensuring a thorough review without disrupting day-to-day operations.
You receive a detailed report of findings, highlighting compliance strengths and shortfalls, plus an actionable roadmap of prioritized improvements to help you achieve full DORA compliance efficiently.
Yes. Third-party vendor management is a core requirement of DORA. An assessment typically reviews your vendor relationships, ensuring their security practices meet the same standards you’re expected to uphold.
It’s advisable to conduct one annually or after major organizational or regulatory changes. Regular assessments keep your compliance efforts current and strengthen your operational resilience over time.
