Product security and security by design
Security built into the product, not bolted on later.
CRA requires products to be secure by design and delivered with secure default settings. That is not a matter of a final check – it has to be part of development from the first sketch.
We walk your products through the CRA security requirements: attack surface minimisation, data protection, secure updates, access control and logging. Recommendations are always adapted to what is realistic for your product.
What you get
Design security review
Assessing the product architecture against the security requirements of CRA Annex I.
Secure defaults
Recommendations for a 'secure by default' configuration – no weak preset passwords and no unnecessarily exposed features.
Hardening and updates
Minimising the attack surface and designing a mechanism for secure, verified updates throughout the support period.
Verification and evidence
Confirming that security measures work and documenting them as evidence for the technical documentation.
