Cybervize
For banks, insurers and regulated financial services

DORA applies. We make your resilience demonstrable.

DORA has required resilient ICT operations since January 2025 with documented TPRM and concentration risk analysis. OdySecure, the security platform by Cybervize, delivers that along the EBA draft CP/2025/12 (not final) from a single data layer and maps in parallel to NIS-2, BAIT and MaRisk.

What financial services get from the platform

Four areas where financial services avoid duplicate work because the platform serves the standards in parallel.

01

TPRM per EBA guidelines

Contract register with 19 EBA mandatory fields, subcontractor chains, AI-assisted contract analysis, concentration-risk heatmap, exit strategies. Outsourcing register on demand.

02

DORA resilience requirements

ICT risk management framework, incident classification, resilience testing, critical functions, supplier impact analysis. Covered through the ISMS and TPRM modules.

03

BAIT, MaRisk and supervisory reporting

Templates for BaFin filings, documented board involvement, compliance status against MaRisk and BAIT. Consolidated at group, subsidiary and tenant level.

04

Entity status per legal entity, also under DORA

From the financial sector, Annex 1 to the German BSIG covers credit institutions, trading venues and central counterparties, and these are as a rule also subject to DORA. § 28 Abs. 6 Nr. 1 BSIG exempts them from named duties, not from the status; § 33 BSIG is not on the exemption list. Insurers and payment institutions, conversely, do not become Annex 1 entities merely because DORA applies to them. The assessment runs per legal entity, not per group: a carved-out IT or SOC company carries its own classification. The platform serves both regimes from a single control mapping.

Why financial services choose Cybervize

Four arguments from the regulated financial context.

01

Big-Four experience in banking and insurance

Industry experience in financial services from partner mandates at PwC and director mandates at Deloitte. CISO interim mandates in DAX banks and insurers are part of the methodology.

02

Audit-ready evidence from day one

ISO 27001 Lead Auditor since 2006 and BSI IT-Grundschutz auditor. Platform evidence is built for the audit situation: timestamp, owner and version on every entry.

03

TPRM along the EBA draft CP/2025/12

Contract register with 19 EBA mandatory fields, subcontractor chains, documented due diligence, concentration risk and exit strategies. Outsourcing register on demand.

04

AI-assisted, but sovereign

Local LLMs for contract analysis and measure generation. In Sovereign mode, the default, no data is shared with external model providers; BYOK and Managed are available as alternatives. GDPR-compliant, hosting in Germany.

Why Cybervize is credible in the financial sector

Cybervize methodology rests on 25 years of ISMS practice at PwC, Deloitte and KPMG, with a focus on financial services. Plus a platform with an TPRM module, aligned with the EBA draft CP/2025/12 (not final), that captures the 19 mandatory fields in the outsourcing register.

Frequently asked questions from financial services

Yes, but not with a second management system. § 28 Abs. 6 Nr. 1 of the German BSIG exempts DORA financial entities from §§ 30, 31, 32, 35, 36, 38 and 39 BSIG: ICT risk management and incident reporting run under DORA via BaFin. That is statutory non-application, not mere overlap in substance, and it does not touch the status as an entity. Registration with the BSI under § 33 BSIG therefore remains, because § 33 is not on the exemption list. Management responsibility does not fall away either: DORA assigns it to the management body itself, including regular ICT risk training. The platform maps both regimes from one control set, so reporting does not have to run in parallel.

Contract register with 19 EBA mandatory fields, subcontractor chains, AI-assisted contract analysis, concentration-risk heatmap, documented exit strategies. Outsourcing register on demand for the regulator.

Multi-entity architecture for group structures, subsidiaries and international sites. Consolidated supervisory report at group, subsidiary and tenant level. Methodology comes from partner mandates in DAX banks at PwC, Deloitte and KPMG.

AI models are self-operated in Sovereign mode, with no data sharing with external model providers; alternatively BYOK or Managed, where you define the data flow. Bring your own API keys (OpenAI, Azure, Anthropic, Ollama) or managed service with German data residency. GDPR-compliant with anonymisation and scheduled deletion.

API integration with existing GRC and reporting tools (RSA Archer, MetricStream, ServiceNow GRC). Three migration scenarios: co-existence, gradual replacement, full migration. Reports can be exported automatically into supervisory workflows.
