CRA – Security with a Seal of Approval

Wibu-Systems' CodeMeter technology is already an established name in the IT world when it comes to IP protection and monetization. Over the past few years, digital transformation has gained enormous momentum, but with these opportunities come significant risks. Cyberattacks, data leaks, and security incidents increasingly threaten the integrity and operational capabilities of businesses and institutions. In response to these developments, the European Union has introduced the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) – a regulation that fundamentally redefines cybersecurity for products with digital elements. As a result, companies face higher demands and the need to fully implement and document these requirements. When it comes to product security, CodeMeter offers many functions to meet these requirements.

Why does the Cyber Resilience Act concern you directly?

The CRA aims to strengthen cybersecurity standards in Europe and will oblige companies to take robust measures to ensure the safety of digital products. Whether it's software, hardware, or cloud-based services – all companies that bring digital products to market or use them must prepare for extensive obligations.

This masterclass is specifically aimed at decision-makers in business, IT, and corporate management who need to understand how the CRA affects their operations, which security measures are mandatory, and what consequences loom if these requirements are not met. The goal is to raise awareness and highlight the areas of action necessary for successful implementation.

Topics of the Lecture:

• What is the Cyber Resilience Act? Overview of the new regulations and objectives.
• Who is affected? Obligations for manufacturers, importers, and distributors of digital products.
• Basic security requirements: What are the core elements of the CRA and how are companies held accountable?
• Legal consequences and penalties: What are the fines and liability risks in case of non-compliance?
• Best practices for your company: Initial steps for implementing the CRA requirements and strategic measures for risk mitigation.

In an increasingly connected world where cyber threats are omnipresent, companies must fundamentally rethink their cybersecurity strategy. The CRA is a turning point – it demands a shift in mindset and proactive action from all involved. Learn why you need to act and how to make your company resilient to these new challenges.
