DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act)

Regulation (EU) 2022/2554, applicable from 17 January 2025, establishing ICT risk management and incident-reporting requirements for financial entities. Financial institutions subject to DORA are exempt from NIS2 for their ICT obligations. For AI-related cybersecurity incidents at financial institutions, DORA's reporting chain applies alongside (not instead of) the AI Act Article 73 serious-incident notification.

Defined in 2 GAGE programs, which carry 2 distinct definitions of it. The wording above is taught in EU AI Act Implementation Expert.

Where it shows up at work

A definition is where DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act) starts. The lessons above teach it inside the competencies below, which are what job descriptions ask for and what the GAGE credential records. Every link here is drawn from the same careers map that builds a role's readiness check.

Compares the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001 and sector rules by intent and control objective, and says where they do not overlap.

One lesson on this page teach it as a primary outcome.

Roles that hire for it

Each role page shows the full competency set, what the seat decides, and a readiness check against your own evidence.

How job descriptions say it

Postings rarely use the textbook word. These are the phrases the careers map reads as asking for the competencies above.

“map requirements”“framework alignment”“multiple frameworks”“unified control framework”“crosswalk”“harmonize”

Where the frameworks place it: EU AI Act; NIST AI RMF; ISO/IEC 42001.

One interview question about it

Map one control to the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001 at once, and tell me where the mapping breaks.

Asked of candidates for framework crosswalking without false equivalence. Answering it in your own words is exactly how a GAGE topic is passed, and the credential records the pass where an employer can check it.
