NIS2 & DORA
NIS2 compliance: evidence, not concepts
NIS2 and DORA require processes you can prove. FLOWSTER automatically documents and logs every workflow step and automates recurring IT evidence – from access rights to patch and backup records.

Why NIS2 demands provable processes
A security concept on paper is no longer enough under NIS2. Organisations must show that measures are actually carried out: who has access, when patches were applied, whether backups work and how incidents were handled. DORA sets similar expectations for financial entities.
This is where FLOWSTER comes in. Every workflow is documented automatically and every step is logged in an audit-proof way. Evidence is created as part of daily operations – not in a spreadsheet just before the next audit.
How FLOWSTER supports NIS2 and DORA compliance
FLOWSTER does not replace legal advice or an ISMS. It ensures your processes provably run the way you defined them.
Automatic documentation & logging
Every workflow step is logged with time, result and responsible person. The log is your evidence.
Specific compliance workflows
Individual workflows cover specific requirements: access recertification, patch and backup checks, recurring reports.
Approvals with roles and permissions
Critical changes go through defined approvals. Full role and permission management controls who may do what.
Lessons learned after an incident
After a gap or security incident, the log shows what happened and when. Measures you derive from it become a new workflow.
Recurring NIS2 evidence you can automate
- Regular recertification of access rights
- Log of all permission changes
- Patch status and proof of applied updates
- Backup checks and restore tests
- Structured onboarding and offboarding including revocation of rights
- Recurring reports for management and audit
Practical examples
Quarterly access recertification
The workflow collects permissions, asks owners to confirm and removes unconfirmed rights – fully logged.
Patch and backup evidence
The workflow checks the status, creates the report and files it. If something deviates, an error handling routine alerts the team.
Incident follow-up
The log makes clear which steps ran. The agreed measure then runs as a fixed workflow in the future.
Frequently asked questions about NIS2 compliance
Does FLOWSTER make my company NIS2-compliant?
No software alone makes a company NIS2-compliant. FLOWSTER supports compliance by documenting processes automatically, logging every step and automating recurring evidence.
Does FLOWSTER also support DORA?
Yes. DORA also requires traceable, provable IT processes. FLOWSTER's automatic documentation and logging support this, as do specific workflows such as access management.
Which evidence can FLOWSTER automate?
Typical examples are access recertifications, logs of permission changes, patch and backup records and recurring reports.
Does FLOWSTER help after a security incident?
Yes. The log shows which steps ran and when, which supports the lessons-learned analysis. Measures derived from it can be implemented as a new workflow.
Which systems can be connected?
Among others Active Directory, Microsoft 365, SAP, Salesforce and many more via ready-made connectors. Anything missing can be connected via REST, webhooks or scripts.
Where does FLOWSTER run?
On-premises or in your own cloud. Your data and logs stay in your environment.
