Next Steps​

It is important that you address the key requirements of DORA by prioritising certain workstreams within your DORA Implementation Project for ‘Day 1’ delivery. For any remaining action points, you must ensure you have a clear plan in place to address these matters within a relatively short timeframe on ‘Day 2’.


Financial Entities should have at least completed these five steps:

  1. Understand how and when you intend to apply proportionality as part of your DORA Compliance Programme
  2. Perform a gap analysis against the Regulation and the RTS/ITS
  3. ‘Prioritise and address your ‘Day 1’ actions and plan for ‘Day 2’
  4. Document your key decisions
  5. Prepare your staff for the new requirements, especially as it relates to Incident Reporting
