DORA COMPLIANCE SOFTWARE: REGISTER OF INFORMATION, ICT RISK, AND xBRL-CSV EXPORT
Automate your Register of Information, export all 15 xBRL-CSV tables in seconds, manage ICT risks with automated scoring, and track incident reporting deadlines from classification to final report.
What is DORA and Who Must Comply? The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA, Regulation 2022/2554) is an EU regulation that requires financial entities to manage ICT risk, report incidents, test resilience, and oversee third-party ICT providers. It applies from 17 January 2025 to over 22,000 entities including banks, insurers, investment firms, payment institutions, and crypto-asset service providers across the EU.
REGISTER OF INFORMATION WITH ONE-CLICK xBRL-CSV EXPORT
Build your DORA Register of Information directly from the providers and contracts you already track in Venvera. Every ICT third-party service provider, contractual arrangement, supporting function, and subcontracting chain is captured in structured fields that map directly to the EBA's 15 xBRL-CSV tables. When it is time to report, export all 15 tables with validated cross-references in seconds. No manual CSV assembly, no broken foreign keys, no last-minute scrambles.
- All 15 EBA xBRL-CSV tables generated automatically from platform data
- Cross-table validation catches errors before you submit
- Entity, sub-consolidated, and consolidated level registers
- Subcontracting chain tracking with n-th party visibility
- Version history so you can compare register changes over time
ICT RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FOR DORA ARTICLE 6
A centralized risk register purpose-built for DORA Article 6 requirements. Every ICT risk scored on a 5x5 likelihood-by-impact matrix with automatic classification from Low through Critical. Assign ownership, set review dates, track treatment decisions (Mitigate, Accept, Transfer, Avoid, Escalate), and generate board-ready reports with one click. Full audit trail on every change satisfies supervisory evidence requirements. See the full risk management module for details.
- Automated 5x5 risk scoring with inherent and residual risk tracking
- 9 ICT risk categories aligned to DORA taxonomy
- Risk appetite thresholds with automatic escalation triggers
- Cross-framework control mapping to NIS2, ISO 27001, GDPR
- Quarterly risk snapshots for trend analysis and audit evidence
INCIDENT REPORTING WITH 4-HOUR CLASSIFICATION DEADLINE
DORA requires major ICT incidents to be classified and initially reported within 4 hours. Venvera enforces this timeline with built-in classification criteria, automatic deadline tracking, and pre-formatted report templates for each of the three reporting stages: initial notification (4h), intermediate report (72h), and final report (1 month). Never miss a regulatory deadline again. See the full incident management module for details.
- Automatic incident classification against DORA severity criteria
- Countdown timers for 4-hour, 72-hour, and 1-month deadlines
- Pre-formatted templates for initial, intermediate, and final reports
- Escalation workflows when deadlines approach
- Complete incident timeline with audit trail for supervisory review
THIRD-PARTY ICT RISK AND CONCENTRATION ANALYSIS
DORA Article 28 requires financial entities to manage ICT third-party risk at every stage of the provider relationship. Venvera scores each provider across five weighted dimensions: Criticality, Geographic Risk, Concentration, Contract Health, and Data Sensitivity. Concentration risk analysis identifies single points of failure before regulators do. Exit strategies, substitutability assessments, and subcontracting chains are all tracked in one place. See the full TPRM module for details.
- Five-dimension automated risk scoring per provider
- Concentration risk alerts at country and provider level
- Exit strategy documentation with substitutability scoring
- Sub-outsourcing chain mapping with n-th party tracking
- Contract lifecycle monitoring: expiry, SLAs, audit rights
BOARD LIABILITY TRACKING FOR DORA ARTICLE 5(2)
DORA Article 5(2) makes board members personally accountable for the ICT risk management framework. Venvera tracks every element of board oversight: policy approvals, risk report reviews, resource allocation decisions, training completion, and oversight meeting attendance. The board dashboard provides a single view of all Article 5(2) obligations with clear evidence that governance duties are being fulfilled. See the full board dashboard for details.
- Policy approval tracking with digital sign-off records
- Board meeting attendance and agenda item logging
- Resource allocation documentation for ICT risk budgets
- Training completion records for management body members
- Personal liability evidence package exportable per board member
DORA GAP ASSESSMENT AND COMPLIANCE ROADMAP
Identify exactly where you stand on DORA compliance in under 5 minutes. Venvera's gap assessment evaluates your organisation against each of the five DORA pillars: ICT risk management, incident reporting, resilience testing, third-party risk, and information sharing. The output is a scored maturity assessment with a prioritised remediation roadmap, effort estimates, and ownership assignments. Track progress from initial assessment through full compliance. See the full compliance roadmap module for details.
- Five-pillar assessment covering all DORA requirements
- Maturity scoring: Not Started, Partial, Implemented, Effective
- Auto-generated remediation roadmap with priority and effort estimates
- Ownership assignment and deadline tracking per remediation item
- Progress dashboard showing compliance trajectory over time

What to Look For in DORA Compliance Software
DORA compliance software has one hard output: the Register of Information, submitted as 15 ESA templates in the xBRL-CSV format the European Supervisory Authorities mandate. Judge any tool by whether it generates those 15 templates with valid cross-references between entities, contractual arrangements, and ICT services, or whether you still assemble the CSVs by hand. The second test is the Article 6 ICT risk management framework: the software should carry a live risk register that implements it, not a policy document that only describes it.
Can the DORA compliance tool export the Register of Information in xBRL-CSV?
The register spans 15 interlinked ESA templates, and one mismatched provider identifier fails the whole filing. A capable DORA compliance tool holds providers, contracts, and functions as structured records under the Articles 28-30 ICT third-party rules, maintains the register of contractual arrangements those articles require, and generates all 15 xBRL-CSV templates on demand. Confirm it validates cross-template references before export, because the ESAs reject submissions on broken keys, not on wording.
How should DORA compliance software track incidents and resilience testing?
Major-incident reporting runs to three deadlines: an initial notification within 24 hours of detecting the incident, an intermediate report within 72 hours, and a final report within one month. DORA compliance software should timestamp each stage and pre-fill the ESA report fields so the deadline is enforced, not remembered. Threat-led penetration testing (TLPT) is a separate obligation covering the live systems behind critical functions, so the tool should also store TLPT scope documents, tester attestations, and remediation evidence for supervisory review.
