      MAKE CYBER RESILIENCE ACTIONABLE

      A medium-sized cooperative bank faced the challenge of efficiently implementing the EU’s DORA regulatory framework and strengthening its cyber resilience. Together, we analysed the current situation and implemented a comprehensive transformation of its IT risk management.

      The path to customer transformation

      Building cyber resilience within a regulatory framework

       

      The bank faced the challenge of understanding and implementing the complex requirements of the EU’s DORA regulation. In addition to regulatory uncertainty, there was a lack of clarity regarding the current level of maturity, as well as a lack of concrete approaches to technical implementation.

      Gap analysis as a starting point for targeted transformation


      KPMG first carried out a comprehensive gap analysis to determine the current situation. Building on this, four key areas for action were defined: IT risk management, information security incident management, management of service providers, and resilience testing. Regulatory requirements were interpreted and directly translated into actionable measures.

      Faster response, greater security and transparency


      As a result of the transformation, the bank was able to identify and assess IT risks much more quickly. In addition, clear sets of measures were introduced and the bank’s ability to respond to cyber threats was significantly improved. Risk management turnaround times were halved and the basis for decision-making was significantly strengthened.
