Critical data and service mapping
Which data populations and transformations are essential to each important business service.
DORA through a data-integrity lens
Digital operational resilience depends on data being available, recoverable and trustworthy after disruption.
DORA strengthens EU financial-sector requirements for ICT risk, resilience testing, incidents and third-party dependencies. DQIntegrity focuses on the data and evidence conditions that determine whether restored or provider-dependent services can still support correct decisions.
The overlooked question
Recovery is not complete when systems restart. The data must still be intact.
Institutions need to understand not only whether a service can be recovered, but whether populations, sequence, transformations, reconciliations, records and evidence remain complete and correct across disruption and restoration.
DQIntegrity complements operational-resilience and ICT-risk work by examining data state, recovery integrity, provider dependencies and control evidence.
Data-resilience focus areas
From critical service to restored decision integrity.
Backup and restore integrity
Completeness, sequence, version, duplication and reconciliation after recovery.
Incident evidence
What changed, what was lost, which controls operated and how impact was determined.
ICT third-party dependencies
Provider data flows, subcontractors, interfaces, ownership and exit/recovery assumptions.
Testing and scenarios
Data-integrity acceptance criteria within resilience, failover, migration and provider tests.
Management assurance
Evidence that restored services are not only available, but support correct and complete outcomes.
Technology-provider relevance
Bank-ready resilience requires evidence beyond product availability.
For technology and delivery providers, DQIntegrity can help define the data controls, support model, test evidence, failure handling and accountability that regulated clients expect.
Available is not the same as intact.
