About the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) Compliance Pack

Developers of hardware and software with digital elements must guarantee baseline cybersecurity protocols before entering the European market. Assembling an EU Cyber Resilience Act compliance pack shields organizations from severe regulatory fines and builds immediate market trust. Security engineers can rapidly generate an Annex I essential requirements checklist, define coordinated vulnerability disclosure policies, and output a valid Declaration of Conformity.

How it works

  1. Identify the product category and assess its risk class under the CRA definitions.
  2. Complete the essential cybersecurity requirements checklist covering secure defaults and access controls.
  3. Establish the vulnerability handling policy, detailing how security patches will be managed and deployed.
  4. Generate the EU Declaration of Conformity and standard security.txt file for responsible disclosure.

Frequently asked questions

What types of products fall under the EU Cyber Resilience Act?

The CRA applies to all products with digital elements connected to a device or network, encompassing both hardware (like IoT devices and routers) and software (like operating systems and applications).

What is a vulnerability handling policy under the CRA?

It is a mandatory, documented process detailing how a manufacturer will actively manage, investigate, and remediate cybersecurity vulnerabilities, including the timely distribution of free security patches.

How long must a manufacturer provide security updates?

Manufacturers must provide security updates for the expected lifetime of the product or for a minimum of five years, whichever is shorter, though specific high-risk categories may have varying requirements.

What happens if a critical vulnerability is discovered after the product is launched?

Manufacturers are legally obligated to report actively exploited vulnerabilities and severe incidents to the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) within 24 hours of becoming aware of them.
