Verifiable evidence for DORA — Governance Evidence Infrastructure for ICT third parties

DORA (Regulation (EU) 2022/2554) requires all regulated financial institutions in the EU to document their ICT governance, third-party contracts and operational resilience measures without gaps. With EVIDION, this documentation is not merely achievable — it becomes verifiable, versioned and supervisory-ready — with audit readiness in under 30 minutes.

What DORA requires of you

Art. 5 DORA places ultimate responsibility with the management body. Art. 6, 17 and 28 define what specifically must be documented, classified and reported — and retrievable at any time.

Art. 6

ICT risk management

Robust framework for the identification, classification and documentation of ICT risks at the enterprise level.

Art. 17

Incident classification

Proactive detection and reporting of ICT-related incidents — with clear escalation documentation.

Art. 28(3)

ICT third-party register

Complete register of all ICT service providers, retrievable at any time — including contract clauses, SLAs and sub-outsourcing chains.

The evidence problem — when auditors arrive ad hoc

European supervisory authorities expect immediate access to all relevant evidence during ad-hoc examinations. Most institutions fail not for lack of knowledge — but for lack of an evidence structure.

Central question

“Can you demonstrably prove within 72 hours which critical ICT third-party providers exist, which contractual risks are present, and which measures have been documented?”
For institutions with manual processes: barely provable. With EVIDION: verifiably documented — at the push of a button.

Automated Governance Evidence Infrastructure

EVIDION analyses your outsourcing, IT and governance contracts, maps clauses to DORA articles and stores every piece of evidence in a cryptographically secured Evidence Ledger — with EU data sovereignty (ISO 27001, SOC 2).

Attribution Layer

Automatically maps contract clauses to DORA articles — in real time, with source attribution.

Retriever Ensemble

Searches all outsourcing, IT and governance contracts in a structured way for regulatorily relevant clauses.

Evidence Ledger

Hash-based integrity verification — integrity-assured, tamper-evident, versioned and verifiably traceable.

Human Oversight Interface

Auditor-ready review dashboard with a clear human–machine division of responsibilities under Art. 5 DORA.

From the board decision to verifiable operational evidence

ICT contracts, sub-providers and internal policies generate fragmented evidence. EVIDION connects them into a verifiable governance evidence architecture.

Align contract standards with regulation

ICT and cloud contract templates are mirrored against DORA, EBA/ESMA requirements and internal policies — consistently reviewed and documented.

Mirror existing contracts against regulation

New requirements are mapped onto existing ICT contracts, deviations are identified and measures documented traceably.

Accelerate legal & governance due diligence

Contract clauses, policies and work instructions are connected into a consistent risk and compliance view — structured, traceable and decision-ready.

Audit Readiness

Critical contracts are analysed on a prioritised basis and gap reports documented in audit-ready form — in hours instead of weeks.

Gap analysis

Identify gaps through gap analysis that accounts for internal best practices

Gap analysis

EVIDION makes the cross-regulatory reconciliation of contracts and governance documents transparent, documented and connectable — extensible to EU AI Act obligations along the finally applicable transition periods.

Concrete clause proposals

From deviation to implementation — structured, prioritised and governable at board level.

Company-specific best practices

Internal requirements and best practices — structurally integrated into contracts, work instructions and board resolutions.

Data management and prioritisation

Structured capture of all relevant governance documents. Systematic DORA contract review with prioritised implementation logic. A transparent basis for board-level steering.

Review cycles shrink from hours to minutes — with structured, audit-ready documentation at the same time

Audit certainty & transparency

Every review is transparently traceable — every identified DORA gap structurally documented.

Extreme time savings

Structural mapping reduces manual review cycles and duplicated work — implemented once, efficient for good.

Framework mapping

Identical requirements (for example DORA and EBA GL) reviewed once, usable across regulations.

Accountability support through structured evidence management

Analysis. Documentation. Decision-readiness. Audit-ready connected.

Demonstrate DORA readiness in under 30 minutes.
