Cyber Resilience Act

Europe has set a new legal threshold for IoT.

The CRA is the EU's first horizontal cybersecurity regulation for products with digital elements. It covers all manufacturers from design to post-sale lifecycle — and becomes operational in September 2026.

Non-Compliance Cost

€15M

or of global annual turnover %2,5

Means revocation of CE marking and complete loss of EU market access.

Article 14

24-Hour Early Warning

Actively exploited vulnerabilities must be reported to ENISA Single Reporting Platform within 24 hours of detection. This is not a manually manageable process.

SBOM & VEX

Dynamic Component Transparency

Manufacturers must track all open-source and commercial components (SPDX / CycloneDX) in real-time and report exploitability via VEX reports.

10-Year Archive

Cryptographic Audit Trail

Event logs and audit records must be stored cryptographically signed throughout the product lifecycle (at least 10 years).

Competitors silo this cycle. TegmenSoft completes every stage within a single SDK.

DIAGNOSEQ3 2026

Dynamic SBOM Engine

Software Bill of Materials & CVE Matching

Extracts a real-time inventory of all software components (open-source and commercial) running on the device; automatically matches them against NVD and MITRE CVE databases. Produces signed SBOM in SPDX and CycloneDX formats.

  • Automatic dependency discovery (binary + manifest)
  • SPDX 2.3 and CycloneDX 1.7 generation
  • NVD, OSV, MITRE CVE matching
  • VEX (Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange) output
DETECTQ3 2026

Telemetry & Active Exploitation Detection

Article 14 Trigger Mechanism

Detects not just theoretical vulnerabilities but active in-the-wild exploitation through device logs and alarms. The early warning layer that triggers CRA Article 14's 24-hour reporting obligation.

  • Device-to-cloud log streaming over mTLS
  • Behavioral anomaly and IoC correlation
  • Vulnerability × telemetry matching
  • Severity scoring engine
ACTQ3 2026

ENISA SRP Automated Reporting

< 24 Hour Legal Notification Automation

Automatically converts detected vulnerabilities into ENISA Single Reporting Platform (SRP) format; prepares early warning, 72-hour full notification, and 14-day final report drafts including affected member states, product lines, and mitigation steps.

  • ENISA SRP schema-compliant output
  • 24h / 72h / 14-day automated schedule
  • Automatic affected market and device pool mapping
  • Signed audit trail
DEPLOYActive

Secure OTA Distribution

Signed Firmware, Bricking Protection

Cryptographically signed (Ed25519 / RSA-PSS) secure firmware distribution with A/B partition rollback and bricking protection — deploys vulnerability patches fleet-wide within hours.

  • Cryptographic signature verification (Ed25519 / RSA-PSS)
  • A/B partition rollback
  • Staged (canary) deployment and fleet segmentation
  • Delta updates for low-bandwidth devices

Architecture

Chip-to-Cloud three-layer security

A single control plane from hardware identity to cloud reporting. Each layer is built as a cryptographic foundation that the layer above can trust.

Layer 01

Device Security

MCU / Embedded Linux

Starting at Root of Trust and hardware identity level, the fundamental cryptographic identity that all upper layers depend on.

Secure BootSigned bootloader chain
Root of TrustHardware-rooted identity
TLS 1.3 / AES-256End-to-end encrypted channel
SDK AgentTelemetry, OTA, log management
Layer 02

SDK & Orchestration

Chip-to-Cloud Control Plane

The middle layer housing PKI/CA, SBOM engine, and OTA server. Integrates into CI/CD pipelines as a low-footprint library.

PKI / CACertificate and key rotation
SBOM EngineSPDX, CycloneDX, VEX generation
OTA ServerSigned firmware distribution

Layer 03

Data & Analytics

Multi-tenant Cloud

Multi-tenant cloud layer; each manufacturer's fleet, audit trails, and reports are isolated with RLS guarantees.

Timeline

CRA enforcement process and critical milestones

The official Cyber Resilience Act timeline and what each phase means for manufacturers.

December 10, 2024

Entry into Force

Cyber Resilience Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/2847) published in the EU Official Journal and entered into force.

January 2025

Standardization Request

European Commission submitted a formal request to CEN-CENELEC for the development of harmonized standards.

September 11, 2026

Reporting Obligation Begins

24-hour ENISA SRP notification requirement for actively exploited vulnerabilities becomes legally binding.

November 2026

Harmonized Standards

EN 18031 family and other harmonized standards are published; compliance path clarifies for manufacturers.

December 11, 2027

Full Compliance

CRA requirements and CE marking obligations become fully mandatory for all products with digital elements.

Breaking Point: 11.09.2026 from this date, reporting actively exploited vulnerabilities to ENISA SRP within 24 hours becomes a legal prerequisite. Manual processes cannot meet this threshold — automation is mandatory.

Risk Classification

Same SDK for every risk class, different audit depth

The CRA divides products into four risk classes. While audit intensity varies, SBOM, vulnerability reporting, and secure OTA are common technical requirements across all classes.

DEFAULT

Default

Example

Smart home devices, consumer IoT, smart toys

Audit

Self-assessment (Module A) sufficient

IMPORTANT

Important — Class I

Example

Authentication systems, VPNs, network management tools

Audit

Notified Body involvement may be required

IMPORTANT

Important — Class II

Example

Industrial firewalls, operating systems, microprocessors

Audit

Third-party examination (Type Examination) mandatory

CRITICAL

Critical

Example

Smart meters, HSM modules, smart cards, health hardware

Audit

Full authorized audit under EUCC

Why TegmenSoft

Technical differentiation from global competitors

We're building the regulation gateway — not a tool, but the infrastructure everyone must pass through.

01 · End-to-End vs. Siloed

End-to-End CRA Solution

Competitor Approach

Most global competitors offer only SBOM scanning (Keyfactor, Snyk) or only OTA management.

TegmenSoft Difference

Unifies Diagnosis (SBOM), Detection (Telemetry), Reporting (Article 14), and Remediation (OTA) in a single SDK; completes the full remediation cycle.

02 · Market Accessibility

Scalable Licensing

Competitor Approach

Existing enterprise solutions require high entry costs and months of integration.

TegmenSoft Difference

Multi-tenant SaaS architecture enables per-device licensing; provides cost and speed advantages for mid-size IoT manufacturers.

03 · Hardware-Agnostic & Low-Footprint

Hardware-Agnostic, Low Footprint

Competitor Approach

Existing solutions are typically Linux-focused; they don't run on embedded MCU class.

TegmenSoft Difference

Runs across ESP32, ARM Cortex-M, and embedded Linux with minimum CPU/RAM consumption. No need to modify existing hardware designs.

04 · ENISA SRP & CRA Native

Regulatory Depth

Competitor Approach

Generic cybersecurity tools offer regulation-compliance as a bolted-on feature.

TegmenSoft Difference

Built directly on CRA Article 14, ENISA SRP, and EN 18031 standards; compliance automation is the core product.

FAQ

Most common questions from manufacturers

If you're a CISO or hardware team lead, here are the technical and operational answers you'll need for your initial assessment.

Designed for hardware and software manufacturers selling products with digital elements (IoT, embedded, network-connected) to the European market. Smart meter, appliance, industrial equipment, network device, and healthcare hardware manufacturers are our primary user profiles.

The Tegmensoft SDK works as a low-footprint library added to the build step. SBOM generation happens at build-time, while telemetry and reporting run at runtime. Directly compatible with Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, and Azure DevOps pipelines.

ESP32, STM32, NXP i.MX, Raspberry Pi, and all platforms running embedded Linux are supported. Minimum footprint target for MCU class: 256 KB Flash / 64 KB RAM.

Yes. Since the CRA also covers products already in the field, a signed SDK update via our tegmensoft-ota module enables retrofit integration with existing fleets.

Stored in EU regions (Frankfurt / Amsterdam) or Turkey (Istanbul) based on manufacturer preference. Multi-tenant architecture isolates each customer's data with Row-Level Security (RLS).
