The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) entered into force on 10 December 2024. This new regulation will apply directly across EU member states from 11 December 2027, without requiring transposition into national law.
The requirement for manufacturers to notify severe incidents and actively exploited vulnerabilities will apply earlier, from 11 September 2026.
The CRA establishes baseline cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements (hardware and software) applicable from the design phase to the product’s expected use.
Products that do not comply with the requirements introduced by the regulation will be prohibited from accessing the EU market.
Cullen International published an infographic providing an overview of the main obligations introduced by the CRA.
