"The way I see it with some of these regulations, it's changing the focus of very siloed-based approaches to addressing regulatory requirements, to as I term, it's turning compliance into a team sport. You need to have your Chief Information Security Officer at the table for DORA. However, you also need to have the person that's responsible for all of your human resources or the person that's responsible for your business operations or for your important business services. And the more mature organizations that I'm working with are approaching it in that way. They have all of those key stakeholders at the table. They've understood that there are certain roles to play for each of these functions and they're working together."
