What is the EU Cyber Resilience Act?
The EU Cyber Resilience Act introduces mandatory cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements (PDEs) placed on the EU market.
It is a product compliance regulation, not an IT security framework, and it creates new obligations for manufacturers, importers, and distributors, including conformity assessment, technical documentation, vulnerability handling, and market surveillance readiness.
Star supports manufacturers in understanding what applies, what to prepare for, and how to implement CRA compliance in a structured, proportionate, and business-oriented way.
