Trakti and the automation of the third-party register: the answer to DORA compliance

on November 24, 2025

In the financial landscape, operational resilience is no longer an accessory element but an essential requirement to ensure continuity, trust, and organizational solidity. With the introduction of the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), European companies in the financial and fintech sectors must face a profound change in the way they manage ICT risks and third-party providers.
In this context, Trakti emerges as the solution that allows companies to transform a complex regulatory obligation into a simple, automated, and compliant process.

The automation of the third-party register is essential

DORA requires all financial institutions, banks, insurers, utilities, PSPs, fund managers, critical infrastructures, and tech providers operating in this sector, to maintain a constantly updated register of ICT providers, including details on services, risks, SLAs, criticalities, and contractual obligations.

And for many companies, this represents a major challenge because:
• The supplier chain grows every year, making it difficult to maintain a unified view of outsourced risk.
• Documentation is often scattered across departments, Excel files, and non-standardized contracts.
• Periodic reviews become increasingly slow and prone to human error.
• The growth of digital activities leads to greater reliance on third parties, amplifying ICT risks.
• Supervisory authorities require complete traceability and objective evidence of risk management.

In particular, financial institutions must ensure that contracts with critical ICT providers include governance mechanisms that enable rapid interventions, immediate adjustments, operational continuity, and complete ICT risk management.
DORA thus becomes a strategic asset to strengthen resilience and business objectives. Moreover, the EU has identified an official list of ICT providers considered “critical” at the Union level, including AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft, IBM, Oracle, SAP, Equinix, Deutsche Telekom, Bloomberg, Accenture, and others, which will be subject to reinforced monitoring, supervision, and periodic reporting obligations to the Authorities, making outsourced risk management even more rigorous.
In this scenario, manually maintaining a third-party register is no longer sustainable: it is inefficient, costly, and vulnerable.
A system is therefore needed that automatically updates data, monitors requirements, flags critical issues, and minimizes human intervention.

How is Trakti useful?

Trakti provides a unified end-to-end platform for contract and supplier management that combines intelligent workflows, smart legal contracts, and blockchain to ensure transparency, security, and compliance.
Trakti’s solution enables companies to move from a fragmented and manual register to an integrated and automated system where every piece of information is updated in real time.

Trakti’s features that address DORA compliance needs

  • Automated and always-updated inventory
    Trakti creates a centralized register of third-party providers, classifying them by criticality, services, and risks.
    Every contractual change automatically updates the register, eliminating repetitive activities and reducing errors.
  • Continuous compliance monitoring
    The platform checks obligations, deadlines, and DORA requirements without human intervention, automatically notifying any deviations.
  • Proactive ICT risk assessment
    Trakti analyzes risks related to providers by cross-referencing performance, SLAs, and regulatory parameters.
    This allows companies to anticipate problems, not just react to them.
  • Dashboards and audit-ready reports
    Companies can generate clear and structured reports, immediately usable during audits or inspections, saving hours of work.
  • Blockchain for integrity and traceability
    Every contractual action is recorded on an immutable ledger, ensuring full transparency.
