The Cyber Resilience Act, Regulation (EU) 2024/2847, sets mandatory cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements (hardware and software) sold in the EU. It entered into force 10 December 2024.
The CRA covers any product with digital elements, hardware or software, that is sold in the EU. It applies to manufacturers, importers, and distributors.
Manufacturers must build in security by design, provide security updates for the product lifetime (minimum 5 years), report actively exploited vulnerabilities to ENISA within 24 hours, and maintain technical documentation.
Fines reach up to 15M EUR or 2.5% of global turnover.

A gap assessment against the CRA usually takes a few weeks. Closing the gaps and standing up the evidence takes longer, and that is where most of the work sits, so the total depends on your starting point. Because Lavawall® is already collecting the technical evidence while we work, you do not restart from zero at reassessment.
Yes. Many clients begin self-serve on Lavawall®, then bring in ThreeShield for the assessment, the policies, and the sign-off once they know where the gaps are. The three engagement models below are meant to be moved between.
