Conference 'Building CRA Compliance through Horizontal Cybersecurity Standards'

Organized by the Cyprus Organization for Standardization (CYS) with the support of the Digital Security Authority (DSA), this high-level conference brings together policymakers, regulators, cybersecurity experts, industry representatives, manufacturers, and Standardization stakeholders to explore how European standardization is supporting the implementation of the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).

The CRA is one of the European Union’s most important cybersecurity initiatives, designed to strengthen cybersecurity across the EU Single Market by ensuring that products with digital elements remain secure throughout their lifecycle.

To support its implementation, the European Commission has mandated the development of a series of harmonized European standards that will provide organizations with practical pathways for demonstrating compliance with CRA requirements.

This conference focuses on the horizontal cybersecurity standards currently being developed within CEN and CENELEC, covering common cybersecurity principles, product risk management, vulnerability handling, lifecycle activities, and generic security requirements for products with digital elements.
