Why financial companies need DORA consulting

525 severe ICT incidents were reported to BaFin in the first three quarters of 2025 alone. 70% of these affected credit institutions. At the same time, the number and sophistication of attacks are constantly increasing: Almost a fifth of all global cyber incidents in the last 20 years have affected the financial sector. Good reasons for financial companies to protect themselves and their supply chains.

What really helps our over 2,500 customers

With Proliance, we are systematically implementing GDPR and are now also approaching NIS2 compliance with a clear framework. We particularly value the combination of an intelligent platform, expert knowledge, and pragmatic implementation – our audit preparation time has been significantly reduced. For mid-sized companies, this is the key to making compliance reliable and scalable.
Holger Montag
Management
Proliance helped us take our company's data protection to the next level. The team's expertise and quick responsiveness supported us every step of the way. Highly recommended.
Felix Pörnbacher
Co-Founder and Co-CEO
The new Record of Processing Activities (RoPA) 2.0 delivers exactly what we need in our day-to-day IT operations. The automated suggestions for legal bases are helpful, without restricting our own structuring or documentation. Particularly valuable is the ability to flexibly build out our own areas and processing activities.
Jasmin Ahrens
Business Lawyer
Thanks to Proliance's data and software, we were able to swiftly organize our healthcare data privacy and document it in compliance with GDPR. Data privacy is a top priority for us – and a dependable partner is essential.
Christoph Dühr
Group CFO at rehaneo
We were looking for a partner who could take tasks off our plate and genuinely support us with advice and practical help. When we ask a question, the Proliance experts quickly provide a clear, actionable answer. The GAP analysis was a valuable reality check. Not because we were in an uncertain position, but because it showed us where we could further refine our processes and documentation more strategically.
Wolf-Dieter Mirz
Managing Director and Authorized Signatory
We have been implementing our annual data protection training through Proliance for years – this provides us with a clearly structured framework for knowledge transfer. Particularly with the use of AI in our teams, we specifically supplement the training where new requirements emerge. This ensures that responsibilities, risks, and legal frameworks remain transparent.

Meik Richter – Senior Account Executive
"DORA compels financial institutions not just to preach cyber resilience, but to live it – it's mandatory since January 2025. For banks, insurance companies, and FinTechs, DORA is no longer a "nice to have": those who fail to act risk regulatory consequences. Companies that take DORA seriously early on build the digital resilience customers need in uncertain times."

Oliver Schirrmacher – Account Executive
"DORA finally elevates cybersecurity to a C-level responsibility and establishes clear accountability. For financial companies, this is both a challenge and a real opportunity: those who are DORA-compliant signal maximum security and risk management to their customers. This is a competitive advantage that pays off in customer loyalty."

Denis Bozek – Account Executive
“DORA is the new regulatory framework for digital resilience in the financial sector – and it has real teeth. Through ICT risk management, third-party dependency assessments, and cyber testing, DORA establishes binding standards where previously there was a lack of clear guidelines. Financial companies that implement DORA now will build resilience that protects them in the long term.”
