DORA is essential for MiCA application

DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act) and MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) are two essential EU regulations that aim to strengthen the stability and security of financial services and crypto markets. MiCA establishes uniform rules for crypto-assets.
If your Web3 project complies with DORA, achieving compliance with MiCA becomes much easier due to several overlapping areas in Risk Management and Cybersecurity, Incident Reporting, Third-Party Risk Management, and Cyber Resilience Testing.

What is the
Digital Operational Resilience Act?

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is a mandatory EU regulation effective from January 17, 2025, aimed at enhancing the financial sector’s resilience against cyber threats. It standardizes and strengthens the operational resilience of financial institutions and their essential third-party providers, including Web3 and crypto-asset services. DORA offers a robust framework that embeds resilience throughout your digital infrastructure, ensuring your operations can withstand disruptions and that you’re ready for any challenges ahead.
