Meeting the ECB’s AI-Enabled Cybersecurity Supervisory Recommendations with NodeZero®

Horizon3 says NodeZero can evidence bank compliance with ECB cybersecurity supervisory recommendations.

Horizon3.ai published a solution brief arguing that NodeZero autonomous penetration testing can help banks evidence alignment with European Central Bank cybersecurity recommendations. It maps testing of infrastructure, cloud, identity, and web applications to six ECB focus areas, including attack-surface protection, patching, monitoring, governance, hygiene, and resilience. An example chain runs from an exposed application configuration file through cloud and Active Directory access to domain compromise. The brief is promotional and cites a Tier-1 financial-services example rather than a newly disclosed incident.

DORA TLPT Requirements Explained: Where Threat Intelligence Fits

DORA requires selected EU financial firms to run threat-led penetration tests at least every three years.

Under DORA Article 26 and Regulation (EU) 2022/2554, certain EU financial entities must conduct threat-led penetration testing at least once every three years, with frequency adjustable by risk. Tests cover critical functions on live production systems under Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/1190 and align with TIBER-EU. Phases include preparation, at least 12 weeks of intelligence-led red teaming, then closure, purple teaming, remediation, and attestation overseen by national authorities. ANY.RUN argues current threat intelligence should shape the scenarios and promotes its lookup data.
