A hard spot in the future for Researchers might be symptoms of our technologies being deeply tied to social institutions, people, and also to memory. The period of the information revolution is over, the contrast has been completed, i.e. the design stage was digital and the content was not. It empowered people. This is where the division between informative content and creator content sets in despite social roles being united by giving each of them forms.
The characteristic that unites all of them is not time, but rather memory, which is a form of self-consciousness. The memory has strong links to personal identity thus the dimension of the memory imposes a sense of time. Our technological system initiated a change by incorporating human memory with technology. Elements of personal identity were part of the social system and deep learning was used in the AI system for identification. All such instances re-enforce the Strategic Governance: Enable your leaders to access the information they require for informed decision-making.
Stakeholder Confidence
Cultivate trust and foster mutual relationships with investors, customers, and other stakeholders.
Operational Efficiency
Systemize task management and adjust the allocation of resources if they are under-utilized.

DORA applies to a wide range of financial services entities and their ICT third-party providers operating within the EU, as well as ICT infrastructure providers outside the EU. Approximately 22,000 financial services companies, including banks, investment firms, insurance companies, and even crypto-asset providers, fall under DORA's jurisdiction.
DORA imposes several requirements on financial institutions to improve their digital resilience. These include establishing and maintaining effective ICT risk management frameworks, implementing processes for classifying and reporting major ICT-related incidents, conducting regular operational resilience testing, and monitoring risks associated with third-party ICT providers.

DORA places significant emphasis on third-party risk management. Financial services companies must ensure that their critical third parties comply with DORA's requirements. This includes implementing risk-based prioritization, automated onboarding and offboarding workflows, ensuring information security controls are in place, and regularly reviewing third-party risk strategie
The timeline depends on the complexity of the project. A simple AI model may take a few weeks, while a comprehensive AI/ML solution may take several months. Factors such as data availability, model training, and testing influence the timeframe.
Financial institutions are required to report significant ICT-related incidents to the relevant authorities promptly. This enables a coordinated response and analysis of potential systemic risks. The specific details of the reporting process are outlined in DORA's guidelines.
DORA is designed as a "lex specialis" and will supersede any overlapping regulatory texts such as the Network and Information Systems (NIS) Directive or the overlapping parts of the European Supervisory Authorities' guidelines. Financial institutions should use DORA as the main reference point for their compliance efforts to avoid unforeseen gaps when the regulation comes into force.
