The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)
Implement requirements efficiently – Enhance security sustainably
The countdown is on: By 2027, all manufacturers and retailers of products with digital components must comply with the new requirements of the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). This poses challenges for many companies: The technical requirements for their own products and architectures are, in some cases, quite demanding. At the same time, numerous processes must be established or optimized - ranging from vulnerability management and internal capacity building to integration into existing development and quality assurance processes. All of this must be done against the backdrop of a tight deadline, limited personnel resources, significant initial effort required for gap analysis and process adjustments, as well as legal uncertainties.
Many companies find it difficult to assess the challenges involved in CRA implementation. Yet many companies often already meet individual requirements. Whether you are just getting started, have already begun addressing the issue, or are even in the middle of the transition process and seeking targeted support, Fraunhofer SIT is the ideal partner for your CRA project team.
