DORA Inspection

DORA Inspection – Your Roadworthiness Check for Digital Operational Resilience

The DORA Inspection is a TÜV-style, structured and objective readiness check for your Digital Operational Resilience setup.
Just like a vehicle must pass its inspection to be considered roadworthy, your ICT risk management, governance, controls and resilience must pass the DORA roadworthiness test to operate safely and compliantly.

This is not a long audit. This is a fast, precise, professional inspection designed to reveal:

  • gaps
  • weaknesses
  • missing evidence
  • incorrect control mappings
  • compliance risks
  • audit exposures

Clear. Diagnostic. Actionable.


What Is the DORA Inspection?

The DORA Inspection is a comprehensive but fast compliance check of your:

  • ICT risk management (Articles 5–10 DORA)
  • ICT incident handling (Articles 15–20 DORA)
  • Digital operational resilience testing (Articles 21–24 DORA)
  • ICT third-party risk management (Articles 25–30 DORA)
  • Governance and oversight
  • Internal control system
  • Documentation and evidence
  • Testing obligations and readiness
