Compliance with the CRA (Cyber Resilience Act)
The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is the first comprehensive regulation in the European Union concerning the cybersecurity of products with digital elements.
It covers software, IoT devices, applications, cloud platforms, firmware, computer hardware, and operating systems introduced to the EU market.
Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)
The CRA imposes obligations on manufacturers, importers, and distributors regarding:
- Risk assessment,
- Security throughout the entire product lifecycle,
- Reporting vulnerabilities and incidents,
- Providing security updates,
- Documenting compliance with security requirements.
The CRA will come into force in 2027, but documentation and operational obligations must be implemented earlier.
We support companies in preparing for the new regulations—both technologically and formally.
Benefits of CRA Implementation
Compliance with EU cybersecurity regulations
We ensure full compliance with the Cyber Resilience Act—from risk assessment to CE marking.
Market access within the European Union
Products that do not meet CRA requirements will not be allowed on the market after 2027. CRA compliance is a condition for continued sales.
Minimized legal liability risk
With proper documentation and compliance, you reduce the risk of penalties, lawsuits, and reputational damage.
Secure product lifecycle
The CRA requires a “security by design” and “security by default” approach—we help you implement these in your product development and management processes.
Increased trust from customers and business partners
A product that meets CRA requirements signals to the market that your company takes digital security seriously.
CRA Compliance Implementation Process
Product audit and CRA applicability analysis
We check whether your digital product (hardware or software) falls under the regulation and what obligations apply.
Risk assessment and CRA compliance analysis
We analyze threats associated with the product, identify gaps and unmet requirements.
Preparation of technical documentation and declaration of conformity
We prepare:
- Risk assessment,
- Security policies,
- Technical documentation,
- Declaration of conformity with CRA,
- Vulnerability reporting procedures.
Implementation of cybersecurity principles in the product lifecycle
We advise on implementing “security by design/default,” update controls, and vulnerability management.
Training for development, compliance, and product owner teams
We raise awareness among key teams responsible for product development and market launch in the EU.
Support in CE marking and communication with supervisory authorities
We help you understand how CRA relates to other regulations (e.g., RED, NIS2) and prepare your product for certification.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions About the CRA
Does the CRA apply to my company if I only sell software?
Yes — if you offer software (even digitally) in the EU market, your company may fall under CRA, especially if the product impacts user or system security.
When does the CRA come into effect?
The CRA is being phased in, but most obligations will apply starting in 2027. However, earlier adjustments to production processes, documentation, and support are required.
Does the CRA only apply to new products?
No—it also applies to updates and the continued sale of existing products if they will be updated or developed after CRA enforcement begins.
Do I need a CRA compliance certificate?
Not every company needs a certificate—but all must have a declaration of conformity, technical documentation, and implemented security measures. Some products may be classified as critical and require notification.
How does the CRA relate to other regulations (e.g., RED, NIS2, GDPR)?
These regulations often complement each other. We help with their integration and avoiding duplication of efforts.
