DORA ICT Risk Governance and Compliance Delivery Services
Accredify Global helps financial entities and ICT providers structure DORA programs around ICT risk governance, resilience controls, incident handling, third-party oversight, and evidence-backed reporting.
We translate DORA expectations into a managed end-to-end program so leadership, risk, security, and operations teams can move in one coordinated direction.
DORA is a governance and resilience program. The focus is on operational alignment, evidence, and control maturity with documented compliance reporting outcomes.
What your team receives
A structured DORA delivery path that helps reduce fragmentation across risk, security, operations, and vendor governance teams.
What this engagement improves
The target is more disciplined ICT resilience, not just framework vocabulary.
Stronger ICT governance
Leaders get clearer accountability and control visibility across digital operations.
Better incident readiness
Response, escalation, and reporting paths become easier to understand and exercise.
Improved third-party oversight
Critical providers and dependencies are easier to monitor and govern.
How the DORA end-to-end engagement works
We structure DORA as an operational resilience workstream connected to governance, not as a disconnected policy exercise.
- Phase 1: Define regulated scope, critical services, ICT dependencies, and leadership expectations.
- Phase 2: Assess current ICT governance, controls, incident handling, and testing maturity.
- Phase 3: Prioritize remediation across resilience, oversight, reporting, and operational gaps.
- Phase 4: Support evidence development, governance updates, and third-party oversight improvements.
- Phase 5: Deliver a compliance status report with prioritized next steps for operational resilience.
Governance and resilience model
Accredify Global keeps the main delivery stream coordinated across risk, security, operations, and vendor management stakeholders.

Common implementation and certification questions
Is DORA only relevant for EU banks?
No. It is also highly relevant for ICT providers and service organizations that support regulated financial entities.
Does DORA compliance include third-party risk?
Yes. Third-party ICT oversight is one of the central parts of a credible DORA delivery program.
Can DORA work connect to existing security programs?
Yes. DORA delivery often overlaps with cyber governance, incident response, continuity planning, and vendor-risk programs already in place.
