Ready for resilience regulation?

Why regulate IT resilience?

"Operational disruptions can cause wide-reaching harm to consumers and pose a risk to market integrity, threaten the viability of firms and cause instability in the financial system." (FCA Policy Statement, March 2021)

By March 2022, Financial Service firms must comply with FCA Regulations on Digital Operational Resilience, and also be prepared to implement changes to comply with the EU's Digital Operational Resilience Act.

Are you ready?

Cloud adoption and estate modernisation are creating increasingly complex, large scale hybrid IT environments for banking and financial services. This complexity poses a bigger risk than ever, and this is why Digital Operational Resilience is now top of UK and EU regulators' agendas.

With change only accelerating, how do you tame this complexity, ensure critical service resilience, and meet increasing regulatory demands?

Our Resilience Readiness Assessment is designed to highlight how you can improve your digital operational resilience and help you comply with regulation, fast.

Compliance countdown

By March 2022, regulated service providers must have:

- ensured visibility by identifying critical applications and vulnerabilities;

- ensured reliability by defining impact tolerances;

- ensured agility by identifying and implementing solutions to address vulnerabilities and meet impact tolerances.

The solution? Orchestration.

Monitor, observe and manage at scale

Orchestration can deliver the visibility, agility and reliability required for compliance with resilience regulation and to drive greater value from your technology investments.

Gartner highlights these 3 goals to deliver mature estate orchestration:

1) Visibility through performance monitoring;

2) Agility through automation of operations;

3) Reliability through service availability.

How can you deliver on these goals? Here's our 5 Building Blocks for Continuous Resilience.
