CRA in Practice: What Manufacturers Need to Do Today to Succeed Tomorrow

The CRA will fundamentally change how products with digital elements are developed, tested, and maintained. Even if OEMs are aware of the upcoming requirements, many still struggle to translate regulatory expectations into practical engineering and cybersecurity processes.

This session provides a pragmatic view of the CRA from the perspective of an independent assessment body. Drawing on experience in product and cybersecurity assessments, plus a comprehensive CRA testing approach, it highlights the challenges OEMs face today and the mistakes that are already emerging across the industry.

Attendees will learn which technical evidence, documentation, and testing activities are expected, how to prepare for compliance, and which actions should be prioritized now to avoid costly surprises later.
