Understanding the CRA

What is the Cyber Resilience Act?

The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is a landmark European regulation establishing cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements placed on the EU market.

It mandates that manufacturers, importers, and distributors ensure their products meet essential cybersecurity requirements throughout their entire lifecycle — from design to end-of-life.

The CRA champions proactive risk management and accountability, ensuring that digital products remain secure and trustworthy for users across the EU.

Harmonized standards developed by European Standardisation Organisations (CEN, CENELEC, ETSI) provide the technical specifications to demonstrate compliance with the CRA.
