His presentation, “Classification of Products, Threat Modelling and Security Measures,” addressed key aspects of the European Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and its implications for companies developing and placing products with digital elements on the European market.
The Cyber Resilience Act introduces mandatory cybersecurity requirements for hardware and software products throughout their entire lifecycle. It places new responsibilities on manufacturers and other economic operators, covering product security, vulnerability handling, risk assessment and incident reporting.
During the conference, Gerald Sendera provided insights into the classification of products under the CRA, approaches to threat modelling, and the security measures required to address cybersecurity risks and support compliance with the new regulatory framework.
The event brought together industry professionals and experts to discuss current developments, practical challenges and the steps organisations need to take to prepare for the CRA.
