London, United Kingdom – 12 February 2025. 6clicks, pioneer of AI-powered Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) software, releases its latest capability, its newly uplifted custom registers, which empower EU organizations to enhance their risk management and compliance processes and align with the requirements of global frameworks such as the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA).
To strengthen cybersecurity in the EU financial sector and minimize disruptions to critical services, the regulation mandates specific security measures for financial entities, such as establishing an ICT risk management framework, implementing incident detection and response procedures, and conducting digital operational resilience testing. Non-compliance with DORA can lead to significant reputational damages and business recovery costs and subject organizations to penalties of as much as 2% of their total annual worldwide turnover.
6clicks' upgraded custom registers feature equips users with easily configurable registers for cataloging and categorizing diverse data sets such as assets, vulnerabilities, risks, issues, incidents, and more, enabling organizations to create their own registers, define custom information fields, and tailor their workflows accordingly.
This scalable solution is designed to address diverse use cases such as business continuity and operational resilience which are critical to the DORA framework. Key benefits include:
- Seamless data management: Easily create and customize information registers tailored to specific organizational needs, including managing and linking business continuity plans, operational resilience measures, and detailed incident records to meet the rigorous requirements of DORA.
- Advanced resilience workflows: Enable enhanced filtering, bulk updates, and automated workflows for greater productivity.
- Robust security and governance: Assign register and item-level access permissions to ensure data security and compliance.
“DORA represents a significant milestone for the financial sector, mandating stringent resilience measures. Our platform is uniquely positioned to help organizations seamlessly align with these requirements,” said Anthony Stevens, CEO & Co-Founder of 6clicks. “Our latest functionality empowers users to not only comply but also future-proof their operations against a wide array of challenges.”
With seamless integration of modules across the platform, organizations can utilize 6clicks' custom registers together with complete functionality for risk management, third-party risk management, issue & incident management, and audit readiness to streamline their compliance with DORA. Users can leverage the following capabilities to meet the core domains of DORA:
- ICT risk management - Powerful risk registers with custom fields and workflows for conducting risk assessments and creating risk treatment plans
- ICT third-party risk management - Streamlined vendor onboarding and assessments and vendor classification based on their level of risk
- Digital operational resilience testing - Implementation of technical controls and automated control tests for real-time alerts of configuration issues
- Incident reporting - Custom incident reporting forms and incident management workflows including task management features to efficiently track issues and incidents from detection to remediation
While 6clicks’ custom registers solution helps organizations address regulatory challenges, its applications extend far beyond compliance, such as optimizing internal project management workflows or enhancing cross-departmental collaboration. The 6clicks platform allows organizations to build and deploy tailored registers for any scenario, from managing internal audits to streamlining IT operations.
This launch is the first in a series of innovations from 6clicks aimed at empowering global organizations. Upcoming updates will further expand the capabilities of the registers, including enhanced configuration options, seamless integration with third-party tools, and advanced analytics powered by Power BI.
