Alexus for FinTech & Banking
Banks and FinTechs sit at the top of the regulator's list, inside both NIS2 and DORA. Alexus gives you one operational-evidence layer, built for NIS2 today with DORA mappings planned, so a control question becomes a query, not a quarter-long scramble.
Banking and financial market infrastructure are essential entities under NIS2 Annex I (strictest supervision, strictest reporting), and most are simultaneously in scope for DORA. The obligations rhyme, but the evidence is scattered across ticketing, monitoring and spreadsheets. Alexus consolidates it.
Overlaps with DORA, PSD2 and EBA guidelines.
NIS2 for FinTech & Banking, in three questions
Yes — banking and financial market infrastructure are high-criticality sectors under NIS2 Annex I.
Essential entity · NIS2 Annex I (Banking · Financial market infrastructure)
Large entities here are Essential and medium ones Important. Most are also in scope for DORA, which can take precedence for financial services.
NIS2 generally applies from medium-sized up — broadly 50+ staff, or annual turnover / balance-sheet total over €10M. (Medium is under 250 staff and up to €50M turnover or €43M balance sheet; larger than that is a “large” entity.) Some entities are in scope regardless of size, and the exact rules are set by your country’s transposition.
Register with your national competent authority once the transposing law applies.
Put the ten cybersecurity risk-management measures in place — and be able to show them working.
Report significant incidents: a 24-hour early warning, a 72-hour notification, and a final report within a month.
Your management body approves and oversees the measures — and can be held personally liable.
Scope is ultimately set by your national transposition — use the self-checks above, or ask us to confirm against your estate.
What makes NIS2 hard in FinTech & Banking
Two regimes, one estate
NIS2 and DORA ask overlapping questions about the same systems. Two parallel evidence trails double the audit burden and invite contradictions.
Reporting clocks that don't wait
A material incident triggers tight notification windows. Assembling an accurate early-warning report by hand, across fragmented tools, is where teams slip.
Personal liability at the top
Under NIS2, management bodies are personally accountable for cyber-risk oversight. Boards need current, defensible evidence, not a once-a-year deck.
The evidence layer, tuned for FinTech & Banking
Continuous Article 21 readiness
A live score against the 10 NIS2 risk-management measures. Mapping to the matching DORA pillars is planned.
24h / 72h incident reporting
Early-warning and notification drafts assembled from the live operational graph, for you to review and submit.
Hash-chained audit trail
Every change (actor, source, timestamp) recorded and replayable. When an auditor or regulator asks what happened, the answer is a query.
Executive Accountability Pack
A quarterly artefact your board can hand a regulator or D&O insurer to show due diligence under NIS2 Article 20.
