Digital Operational Resilience ACT (DORA) Readiness Assessment

What is a DORA Readiness Assessment? 

The DORA Readiness Assessment is a focused gap analysis that evaluates your organisation’s current ICT risk management, incident response, operational resilience, and third-party oversight practices against the requirements of the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). This assessment helps identify areas of non-compliance and ensures your organisation is prepared to meet DORA’s stringent standards, enhancing your operational resilience and minimising regulatory risk.

Importance of a Readiness Assessment

A readiness assessment is crucial for organisations preparing to comply with new regulations or implementing operational improvements, such as those required by the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). It provides a structured evaluation of an organisation’s current capabilities, identifying gaps and vulnerabilities before they become critical issues.

By conducting a readiness assessment, businesses can:

  • Proactively Mitigate Risks: Address vulnerabilities and weaknesses before regulatory audits or incidents occur.

  • Ensure Compliance: Understand regulatory requirements and align internal practices to avoid penalties and reputational damage.

  • Enhance Operational Resilience: Strengthen the organisation’s ability to withstand and recover from disruptions, cyberattacks, or system failures.

  • Optimise Resource Allocation: Focus efforts and investments on areas that need improvement, maximising efficiency.

  • Demonstrate Accountability: Showcase to stakeholders and regulators a commitment to meeting industry standards and ensuring robust operational practices.

A readiness assessment is not just about identifying gaps — it’s a strategic step towards building confidence, resilience, and trust in your organisation’s ability to operate securely and efficiently in a rapidly evolving risk landscape.
