DORA ICT risk assessment with ISMS Copilot
Build the Article 6 ICT risk-management framework and document concentration risk with AI assistance.
ICT risk assessment under the Article 6 framework
DORA splits accountability deliberately: Article 5 places ultimate responsibility for the ICT risk-management framework on the management body, while Article 6 sets out the framework itself — strategies, policies, procedures, and tools the entity must document and review at least annually. ISMS Copilot keeps that distinction intact. It guides you through Article 8 identification of ICT-supported business functions, information assets, and dependencies, then helps assess and treat the risks attached to each. The assistant flags ICT third-party concentration risk where critical functions rely on a single provider, drafting the analysis Article 28 expects. Because DORA cross-maps to ISO 27001 and NIS 2, controls you already operate can be reused rather than rebuilt for the financial-sector regime.

- Keep the Article 5 management-body duty separate from the Article 6 framework documentation
- Produce Article 8 asset and dependency inventories without manual spreadsheets
- Surface ICT concentration risk before supervisors or auditors raise it
- Reuse existing ISO 27001 and NIS 2 controls instead of duplicating effort
Free DORA applicability checker
Confirm DORA actually applies to your entity before scoping the framework: the free DORA Applicability Checker runs the Regulation 2022/2554 scope test (financial-entity categories, no transposition layer — it applied EU-wide from 17 January 2025) in a few questions.

Does it cover the Article 5 management-body responsibility?
ISMS Copilot documents the Article 6 ICT risk-management framework and clearly attributes the Article 5 oversight and approval duties to the management body. It does not replace the body's accountability — it produces the artefacts the body must review and approve.
Can it assess ICT third-party concentration risk?
Yes. ISMS Copilot helps map critical and important functions to their ICT providers, identify single points of dependency, and draft the concentration-risk analysis DORA expects under its third-party provisions.
Does it reuse my existing ISO 27001 work?
It does. DORA cross-maps to ISO 27001 and NIS 2, so ISMS Copilot shows which existing controls already satisfy DORA risk-management requirements and where financial-sector-specific gaps remain.
