EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) Reporting Rules Take Effect

The European Union's Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) now mandates companies to submit vulnerability disclosures and product security reports, effective July 1, 2024.

Bottom line: Companies in the EU must prioritize product security and vulnerability disclosure under the new regulations, or risk facing penalties.

What's happening: The Cyber Resilience Act requires companies to submit detailed reports on their vulnerability management practices and product security measures, including the identification of high-risk vulnerabilities with a CVSS score of 7.0 or higher.

What to do: Security leaders must review their company's vulnerability disclosure and product security policies, ensuring compliance with the CRA's reporting requirements and updating their incident response plans accordingly.
