As edge computing becomes a foundation across manufacturing, retail, and transportation, cybersecurity risks are rising alongside opportunity. Edge devices now handle sensitive data, control physical systems, and enable real-time decision-making, making them prime targets for cybersecurity threats. To address these risks, the EU Cybersecurity Resilience Act (EU CRA) redefines cybersecurity as a mandatory requirement for all products with digital elements entering the EU market. Under the CRA, security is no longer an optional feature, it must be built in by design and maintained throughout the product lifecycle. Explore this guide to help you prepare for EU CRA readiness.
