Overview
In our Copla Platform, each control and task is linked to DORA and RTS/ITS requirements - this ensures full regulatory traceability and helps auditors and regulators clearly understand your compliance coverage.
How to Read the Control Tags
Example notation:
D_A12.1 / 1774_A8.2b(i)
-
D – Refers to DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act).
-
A12.1 – Refers to Article 12.1 of DORA.
-
1774 – Refers to the number of the RTS (Regulatory Technical Standard).
-
A8.2b(i) – Refers to Article 8.2(b)(i) of that RTS.
This means the control is mapped to DORA Article 12.1 and the corresponding RTS Article 8.2(b)(i) in RTS 1774.
In some cases, you will see only DORA or only RTS references. This happens when the requirement originates solely from one of those sources.
What This Means for You
-
Each control and evidence item is mapped to the exact DORA Article(s) and RTS/ITS provisions it addresses.
-
This traceability ensures auditors and regulators can see which evidence covers which part of DORA.
-
You will also be able to view coverage metrics — a percentage view of how much of DORA your current evidence covers.
What You Need to Do
You can continue uploading evidence as usual. All existing tasks already align with DORA requirements — we are simply improving the structure and labels to make the compliance mapping clearer and easier to follow.
