Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them
Pitfall 1: Underestimating Complexity
Problem: Viewing DORA as just another compliance exercise
Solution: Treat DORA as strategic transformation, not checklist compliance
Pitfall 2: Insufficient Budget/Resources
Problem: Underfunding DORA implementation
Solution: Conduct thorough cost assessment, build business case, secure executive commitment
Pitfall 3: Lack of Board Engagement
Problem: Board treats DORA as IT issue
Solution: Board training, regular reporting, frame as business resilience (not just IT)
Pitfall 4: Incomplete Third-Party Register
Problem: Missing or inaccurate register of ICT providers
Solution: Comprehensive discovery process, procurement coordination, regular updates
Pitfall 5: Contract Renegotiation Delays
Problem: Providers slow to agree to DORA clauses
Solution: Start early, prioritize critical providers, consider alternatives if provider refuses
Pitfall 6: Inadequate Incident Classification
Problem: Misclassifying incidents (major vs. non-major)
Solution: Clear, documented criteria; risk/compliance involvement; err on side of reporting
Pitfall 7: Unrealistic Testing Scope
Problem: Testing program too limited or too ambitious
Solution: Risk-based prioritization, phased approach, leverage external expertise
Pitfall 8: Siloed Implementation
Problem: IT/security implementing DORA without business involvement
Solution: Cross-functional steering committee, business unit engagement, shared ownership
Pitfall 9: Documentation Gaps
Problem: Controls implemented but not documented
Solution: Documentation discipline, centralized repository, regular reviews
Pitfall 10: "Set and Forget" Mentality
Problem: Treating DORA as one-time project
Solution: Continuous monitoring, regular updates, embed in BAU processes
DORA and Related Regulations
Interaction with Other EU Regulations
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation):
DORA complements GDPR
GDPR: Data protection and privacy
DORA: Digital operational resilience
Overlap: Data breach notification, security controls
Coordination: DORA incident reporting does not replace GDPR breach notification (both may apply)
NIS2 Directive (Network and Information Security Directive):
NIS2 applies to broader set of entities (including some financial)
DORA is lex specialis for financial sector (takes precedence)
Financial entities under DORA not subject to NIS2
Similar requirements: Risk management, incident reporting, supply chain security
MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation):
MiCA regulates crypto-asset service providers (CASPs)
DORA applies to CASPs
MiCA has specific requirements for CASPs; DORA adds operational resilience layer
EMIR/SFTR (Derivatives and Securities Financing Transactions):
DORA complements with operational resilience requirements
CCPs, trade repositories subject to both EMIR and DORA
Alignment with International Standards
ISO 27001: Information security management
DORA aligns with ISO 27001 principles
ISO certification helpful but not sufficient for DORA compliance
NIST Cybersecurity Framework:
DORA's risk management framework similar to NIST CSF
Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover
TIBER-EU:
DORA explicitly adopts TIBER-EU for TLPT
Harmonized threat-led testing across EU
SWIFT Customer Security Programme (CSP):
Banks using SWIFT also subject to CSP
DORA and SWIFT CSP complementary
Some overlap in controls (reduce duplication)
