* Monitor business service resiliency from start to finish, with a focus on operational risk and compliance.
* Identify and report operational vulnerabilities from Employee Center or Operational Resilience Workspace. Address these vulnerabilities through procedures such as reporting, assessing impact, evaluating criticality, managing issues, and planning treatments.
* Use the Digital resilience third-party registers application to establish, update, and manage contractual arrangements between the financial entities and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) service providers.
* Export the records for regulators and auditors in Microsoft Excel format by using the Microsoft Excel upload capability in Digital resilience third-party registers. Similarly, you can import the records from external sources by using the Microsoft Excel download functionality.
