DORA Compliance
Identity Is Your Final Line of Defence.

DORA turns identity governance into a regulatory and operational survival requirement for financial entities. You are responsible for the identities of your vendors, contractors, and machines — not just your employees. TLPT red teams will test exactly how far a compromised credential can travel.

ICT Third-Party Risk (Article 28)

  • Maintain a complete register of all ICT service providers with access
  • Pre-engagement due diligence on their identity security posture
  • Contractual rights to audit, receive incident notifications, and terminate
  • Continuous monitoring of the risk posed by critical third parties

A vendor SOC 2 does not relieve you of your obligation to govern the credentials you issue them.

TLPT & Operational Resilience Testing

Threat-led penetration testing will actively attempt to move laterally using compromised identities. Without identity-based microsegmentation and just-in-time privileged access, a single service account can give testers (and real attackers) the keys to the kingdom.

Our Approach

We combine Elisity microsegmentation, Delinea/CyberArk PAM, and continuous ITDR to ensure that even successful credential compromise produces minimal blast radius.

Phishing-Resistant Authentication & Continuous Controls

DORA expects more than basic MFA. Regulators are looking for FIDO2/WebAuthn, risk-based step-up, and behavioral signals that adapt in real time. Your identity stack must fail closed during incidents while keeping critical operations running.
