GRC International Launches Comprehensive Suite of DORA Services

 

GRC International Group PLC (AIM: GRC, "GRC" or "the Group"), the
international governance, risk management and compliance company whose main
business is cyber defence-in-depth, announces the launch of an
all-encompassing suite of products specifically designed to empower businesses
in achieving compliance with the new Digital Operational Resilience Act
(DORA). This comprehensive suite includes an array of resources, tools,
training, and consultancy services to assist organisations in navigating the
complex landscape of digital operational resilience.

The DORA is a new and crucial EU Act that is set to be applied to financial
services companies and their IT service suppliers within and serving the EU
market. It is a monumental shift in regulatory focus towards ensuring robust
operational resilience in the digital age. With the clock ticking towards the
January 2024 compliance deadline, financial organisations are under increasing
pressure to align their operations with the DORA's stringent standards.

The Group's suite of DORA-focused products has been meticulously crafted to
equip these organisations with the necessary knowledge, tools, and support to
not only meet these regulatory requirements, but also to seize the
opportunities for enhanced cybersecurity and operational excellence that the
DORA presents.

Alan Calder, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"The Digital Operational Resilience Act signifies a pivotal moment for the
cybersecurity industry. As businesses continue to rely heavily on digital
infrastructure, the need for operational resilience has never been greater.
Our new suite of DORA-focused products is a testament to our commitment to
helping organisations adapt, comply, and thrive in this evolving landscape. We
believe that by providing comprehensive resources, training, and consultancy,
we are not only enabling compliance but also empowering businesses to
proactively enhance their cybersecurity posture.

As the DORA framework ushers in a new era of operational resilience, the Group
stands ready to be a trusted partner in navigating these uncharted waters.
With a rich legacy of cybersecurity expertise, GRC International Group is
uniquely positioned to guide organisations toward achieving operational
resilience excellence."
