DORA Risk vs DORA Compliance: Excel & Power BI Toolkit

Excel framework and Power BI dashboard Toolkit: Take DORA From Compliance Burden to a Driver of Digital Resilience.

What you'll learn
- Why running DORA as a compliance programme is not the best fit for your first line.
- What DORA compliance looks like as a natural consequence of your day-to-day risk management.
- How we made DORA measurable and actionable so everyone knew what need to be done.
- How we assigned ownership and accountability for DORA's requirements, so everyone knew their bit of DORA. And how you can teak the framework to your org chart.
- How we've mapped DOAR to policies and procedures, so that your teams know what to do and when to do it.
- How to use the toolkit to test the DORA risk & Control framework by running it alongside your current risk process.

Requirements
- You will need Power BI. The free version (web or desktop) will work.
- The course assumes a basic understanding of DORA and security risk.

Description
Is DORA feeling more like a compliance burden than digital resilience? Then you're not alone.

This course gives you a proven, battle-tested blueprint to avoid spinning up a separate and siloed DORA compliance program.

Instead, you’ll learn how to fold DORA into your existing risk management process—so DORA becomes a driver of digital resilience, not a checkbox exercise to avoid fines.

This course applies 4 governance principles to the DORA and wraps it in a toolkit.

The toolkits,Excel framework and Power BI dashboard:

Breaks down DORA’s complex paragraphs intocompliance statements. Making it clear, measurable, and actionable, so we all know what needs doing.

Maps these statements toITIL capabilities and teams– defining clear accountability and responsibility. So everyone knows which bits of DORA are theirs.

Aligns each requirement withdigital resilience risks and NIST controls– enabling the risk-based prioritisation of DORA's requirements.

Maps it topolicies and procedures. So everyone knows exactly how to do their bits of DORA – consistently, correctly and repeatably.

Power BI dashboard allows you to run theDORA risk & control framework alongside your current risk process. Start by conducting a control self-assessment to track your controls, then switch to the Risk Assessment view to see how your controls impact your residual risk.

While you’re running this side-by-side, tweak the framework until it’s perfect—then, when you're ready, plug it straight into your GRC platform.

So, if your first line is tired of theoretical models and just wants something that works, this course gives you exactly that.

Who this course is for:
- Security risk practitioners.
- InfoSec and cyber security practitioners.
- First line of defence wanting practical, non-theoretical way to implement DORA.
