DORA NIS2 Compliance

It refers to the dual regulatory obligation for entities, especially in finance and critical sectors, to adhere to the EU's Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) and the second Network and Information Systems Directive (NIS2). DORA focuses on ICT risk management for the financial sector, while NIS2 broadens the scope to more critical entities, mandating stricter cybersecurity measures and incident reporting.

Organizations must integrate DORA and NIS2 requirements into their Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework. This involves treating ICT and cybersecurity risks, including third-party supplier risks, as principal business risks. Practically, it requires establishing a unified governance structure, conducting comprehensive risk assessments and resilience testing, and developing integrated incident response and business continuity plans.

Key challenges include a lack of familiarity with complex EU regulations, difficulties in mapping ICT third-party risks across the supply chain, and gaps in internal cybersecurity governance. Taiwanese companies with EU business ties may be indirectly affected. Solutions involve conducting a regulatory gap analysis, forming a cross-functional task force, and engaging expert consultants to systematically build a compliant management system.
