Meeting Global Expectations for Compliance

Regulations like the EU’s Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) highlight a global movement toward stronger standards for operational resilience and cybersecurity. Financial institutions, along with their technology partners, are under growing pressure to provide transparent documentation and proof of readiness. Even if your organization is not directly subject to DORA, customers and regulators increasingly expect the same level of evidence from every vendor. 

The VAST Compliance Package additionally aligns with widely recognized compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, NIST 800-53, GDPR, and other standards common in government and healthcare environments.
