Why is this important?

Compliance frameworks like NIS2, DORA, and TIBER-EU should be considered more than just a requirement, we believe its an opportunity to strengthen your organization’s digital operational resilience through proactive, threat-led, risk management.

Venation’s scenario-based products and services offer organizations the tools, insights, and support to meet these regulations while boosting security posture and operational efficiency.

By leveraging threat intelligence, scenario planning, and crisis management exercises, Venation enables businesses to transition from reactive approaches to proactive, strategic digital risk management.

Whether it’s anticipating potential cyber threats or conducting comprehensive scenario-based penetration tests, our solutions empower teams to act decisively in uncertainty, while still ensuring compliance and resilience.

How does Venation do that?

1. TIBER-EU Compliance: Intelligence-Led Operational Resilience Testing

TIBER-EU testing methodologies, including threat intelligence and red team exercises, simulate real-life cyber-attacks, helping organizations to prioritize remediation efforts and continuously improve their resilience. Performing periodic TIBER-EU engagements within your organization ensures compliance with this locally or regionally requirement.

Our benefits to your TIBER-EU compliance:

• Regulatory compliance and beyond: Venation goes beyond TIBER-EU scenario requirements, helping organizations develop their own scenario planning efforts to enhance resilience across all operations.
• Enhanced adoption through visualization: Venation’s scenario content emphasizes a visual approach to identify and manage existential threats, ensuring adoption from board-level decision-makers to operational teams.
• Optimized resource allocation: By using our scenario-based approach, organizations can prioritize security measures based on risk, streamline processes, and reduce operational costs.

2. DORA Compliance: Threat-Led Penetration Testing and Risk Management

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) requires (financial) entities to conduct regular threat-led penetration testing (TLPT) and risk assessments. Venation’s scenario-based content streamlines TLPT activities with expertly crafted scenarios that enable thorough testing, risk analysis, and remediation, all aligned with DORA’s stringent requirements.

Our benefits to your DORA compliance:

• Robust test planning: Venation develops detailed red team test plans, ensuring entities meet DORA’s requirements for comprehensive threat testing and timely reporting. 
• Effective testing execution: By conducting scenario-based penetration tests, organizations can identify vulnerabilities, enhance their security posture, and improve decision-making at all levels of the organization.
• Continuous monitoring: Venation’s ongoing risk monitoring and detailed remediation plans ensure that financial institutions continuously meet DORA’s compliance standards while safeguarding financial stability.

3. NIS2 Compliance: Threat-Led Scenario Planning

NIS2 mandates that entities must anticipate and mitigate potential threats through advanced threat intelligence and scenario planning. Venation’s Scenario Intelligence Subscription and Scenario Planning Services offer a vast repository of expertly crafted scenarios that help organizations anticipate, mitigate, and respond to potential risks.

Our benefits to your NIS2 compliance:

• Reduce analysis time: Our structured scenarios save teams weeks of analysis, offering ready-to-use content that can be quickly integrated into internal processes, ensuring timely threat identification and response.
• Enhance preparedness: Venation’s scenario-based penetration testing and crisis management exercises help organizations meet NIS2’s requirements for digital operational resilience, ensuring they are prepared for a wide range of potential threats.
