DORA & ITOps Best Practices; Plus BMO, Google Outages

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) goes into effect on January 17, 2025, and financial institutions serving the EU will need to meet an enhanced set of requirements related to risk management, network resilience, and incident reporting. While DORA is directly applicable to EU financial institutions, it prompts important discussions about resilience and ensuring digital experiences that are relevant for all IT operations teams, regardless of industry or region. Tune in to the podcast to hear The Internet Report team and special guest Bernie Clairmont, Product Solution Architect at ThousandEyes, dive deeper into DORA. As usual, we’ll also unpack recent outages from the last few weeks, examining the DDoS attacks against the Internet Archive as well as some power and cooling problems at Google Cloud. We’ll also revisit a previous Azure outage and discuss the latest global outage numbers. ———
