📌In just over half a year, the 22,000 entities forming Europe's vibrant financial services patchwork will face the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). 💎 This concise yet rich FinTech Futures piece walks us through #DORA's origin story and main requirements. Even more importantly, the piece explores key measures to ensure business readiness to comply at the turn of the new year. 🧠We are delighted to have shared insights with Tyler Pathe: our CEO Rayna Stamboliyska contributed to shed light on DORA's requirements alongside Simon Treacy of Linklaters, Sara de la Torre of Dun & Bradstreet and Tom Henshaw of Fusion Risk Management. 👉 Read on: https://lnkd.in/eV65EU-Z #EUpolicy #DigitalEU #cloud #compliance

🙌 The European Parliament held its inaugural session yesterday, 16 July. Welcome to the 720 MEPs (Members of the European Parliament) from all 27 Member States! ▶ The new Parliament will have the tricky task of keeping checks and balances. In addition to new legislation, some of the already adopted regulations will undergo reviews during the 2024-2029 term. Such evaluations often include an invitation to propose additional measures on subjects that were too immature or too debated when the legislation was negotiated or that have been overtaken by technological, economic, or political developments. ✅ So, we looked for some continuity. A few well-known names return to the Parliament, and we may reasonably assume they will keep track of their pet legislation in the current term. Here are 5 + 1 MEPs to watch for. 📌Enter Bart Groothuis, Brando Benifei, Henna Virkkunen, Billy Kelleher MEP, Markéta Gregorová and Dóra Dávid - congrats on your (re)election and looking forward to making better legislation for every European! 👉All there is to know about our illustrious selection: https://lnkd.in/enJ42PU7 💌 Looking for help navigating European tech policy's complex yet exciting waters?

As we enter the summer and eagerly await the next term for EU legislators, we get back to five key achievements of the European powerhouse ✨ ▶ Digital compliance has become a significant focus for any organisation providing or consuming digital products and services in Europe. With the continuous evolution of digital technology, businesses increasingly struggle to stay on the right side of the law and operate resiliently. So, strategic navigation is crucial. ✅ By understanding and strategically responding to the legislative goals the different policies bring, you can leverage these regulations to enhance your competitive edge in the digital marketplace. 1️⃣ In this first instalment, we examine the heavy-weight: the NIS2 Directive. 👇 🎁 BONUS: In case you've missed it, here is the guide that you need to enable Ops to innovate compliantly in a cloud environment https://lnkd.in/eVmA2a9h #DigitalEU #eupolicy #cybersecurity #NIS2 #cloud

📢 As we await the results of the European Parliament elections, let's take a closer look at the five key achievements in EU Digital Policy for the 2019-2024 legislature. And the forth one will surprise you 😉 https://lnkd.in/efrSdHr9 #eupolicy #DigitalEU #cybersecurity #AI

✨We went to Barcelona, and we helped cybersecurity startups build better. We are humbled and wish them success! 💡But how and why did we do that? The answer you are looking for: The European Cybersecurity Competence Centre (ECCC) ▶ Established to enhance Europe's cybersecurity capabilities and competitiveness, the ECCC collaborates closely with a network of National Coordination Centres. ✅Through its Strategic Agenda, the ECCC defines a vision for the EU investment in cybersecurity. The overarching goal is to increase the global competitiveness of the Union's cybersecurity industry with a strong focus on SMEs and startups. 👉 Learn more about the Access-2-Market startup competition organised by the ECCC where our founder Rayna Stamboliyska was a judge, and get to know the the winners: https://lnkd.in/em46MAMu ❤ A huge thanks to Agència de Ciberseguretat de Catalunya, INCIBE - Instituto Nacional de Ciberseguridad and European Cyber Security Organisation (ECSO) for making this happen. #investment #cybersecurity #DigitalEU

💎 There are hidden gems in the EU #AIAct's risk management approach. ▶ Yesterday, we attended a dedicated seminar by the European Commission's AI Office. The seminar focused on the risk management logic in the AI Act and discussed how 'risk' is defined in the AI Act and what it means for producers and users of AI systems. That discussion is essential to understanding how the AI Act interacts with other regulatory frameworks and how it will change how we manage risk. 1️⃣ The Act requires providers (i.e. developers) of #AI systems to cover health and safety risks as well as risks to fundamental rights, including automation bias and cybersecurity. Accounting for the protection of fundamental rights while conceiving AI systems will require to rethink of our risk management systems entirely. 2️⃣ The Act requires deployers of AI systems (those who will define the usages) to conduct Fundamental Rights Impact Assessments. This is the other side of the coin: AI systems in use will also be monitored to ensure the way they operate does not pose a risk to fundamental rights and freedoms. 3️⃣ The standardisation process will change: the inclusion of risks on fundamental rights will require a different approach to risk management, which is different in logic to what we know from traditional risk management approaches. As it stands, the notorious ISO42001:2023 norm suffers significant non-alignment with the AI Act. 🎁 To help you better understand the link between AI systems and risk levels, we have prepared the image below 👇 That resource comes from our new publication, La tech est politique, which launches in English in September 2024.

💡Pssst... Here's the only guide you need to innovate in a cloud-native environment while staying on the right side of the law on both sides of the Pond. 🤓Why are we proud to have contributed to Sysdig's newest Point-of-View paper, "Practical Cloud Security Guidance in the Era of Cybersecurity Regulation"? Here are three reasons: 1️⃣ We crafted a unique guide that security practitioners and leadership can read, understand, and apply. You connect the dots between what the regulations say, what you do operationally, and how cybersecurity leadership interfaces here. 2️⃣ We geared this guide to help you understand the concrete meaning of four big regulatory frameworks. We tackled the requirements of the US National Cybersecurity Strategy, the US SEC disclosure rules, the EU NIS2 Directive, and the forthcoming EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). When we say 'concrete', we mean e.g. examples of SBOM to address specific regulatory requirements. 3️⃣ We aim to innovate securely and take advantage of regulatory requirements in the US and the EU. Hence, the focus is on these overarching frameworks, which will model industrial policy for the coming decade. 📌 Let's be smarter together and stop doing compliance to become secure and resilient. 👉 Download the Point-of-View paper https://lnkd.in/ejhfGyqB #cybersecurity #cloud #eupolicy #uspolicy

🧠As financial institutions embrace cloud technology, they face a challenging cybersecurity landscape shaped by regulatory frameworks such as the updated #NIS2 Directive and the Digital Operational Resilience Act (#DORA). ▶ Regulatory pressure is mounting, with new frameworks like NIS2, DORA, and SEC disclosure guidelines in the US. Compliance requires financial institutions to detect incidents promptly and implement effective security measures. ☁ #Cloud security is a top concern for financial sector executives, and regulatory compliance can be a barrier to adopting new technologies. Financial institutions must strike a balance between innovation and security. ✅A recent panel discussion organised by Sysdig, with our CEO Rayna Stamboliyska, gathered industry experts to explore the complexities of cloud security regulations in financial services. 📌Missed it?
