EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)


Vulnerability Handling & Incident Response Under the CRA, handling vulnerabilities isn’t just good practice, it’s the law. Manufacturers have to detect, document, fix, and report exploited vulnerabilities within 24 hours (!), plus submit final reports in just 14 days. Oh, and notify users too, preferably in a machine-readable format. Component Integration & Supply Chain Security The CRA makes it clear: if you’re building products with digital elements, you’re also responsible for the components you integrate, even open-source ones. Practical Implementation & Tools This category is for discussing how to actually implement the CRA in your day-to-day work. Compliance Processes & Certification The CRA isn’t just about building secure products, it’s about proving they are secure. That means risk assessments, technical documentation, conformity assessments, and eventually affixing the CE marking. Understanding the CRA The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is the EU’s new regulation aiming to make digital products — both hardware and software — more secure by design and throughout their lifecycle. It applies to nearly every connected product on the EU market, from smart fridges to SaaS platforms. Sector & Regulation Intersections The CRA is just one piece of a broader EU regulatory puzzle. Depending on your product and sector, you might also need to comply with: Core Security Requirements (Annex I) Annex I is the heart of the CRA. It’s where the EU spells out what it means for a product with digital elements to be “secure.” And it’s not just a checkbox exercise — the requirements impact how we design, build, update, and support our products.
