CRA Compliance Across Every Industry
Every manufacturer selling products with digital elements in the EU must comply with the Cyber Resilience Act by December 2027. Kunnus delivers industry-specific compliance solutions — tailored to your regulatory landscape, product complexity, and existing processes.
The industries below represent our core verticals. Kunnus supports all CRA-affected organizations, including pure software publishers and SaaS providers.
The EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) creates mandatory cybersecurity requirements for all products with digital elements sold in the European market. Each industry faces distinct compliance challenges: long certification cycles and legacy systems in manufacturing, massive SKU counts in consumer IoT, critical infrastructure obligations in energy and telecom, or rapid release cadences in software. Kunnus provides a unified compliance platform that adapts to these industry-specific requirements while ensuring end-to-end CRA conformity across your entire product portfolio.
This Regulation applies to products with digital elements made available on the market, the intended purpose or reasonably foreseeable use of which includes a direct or indirect logical or physical data connection to a device or network.
— Regulation (EU) 2024/2847, Art. 2(1)
Industrial Machinery & Automation
Industrial machines with embedded software face a new regulatory reality. The Cyber Resilience Act requires manufacturers of PLCs, CNC machines, and robotics solutions to demonstrate cybersecurity throughout the entire product lifecycle. With product lifecycles spanning 15 years or more, continuous vulnerability monitoring becomes the central challenge.

Connected consumer products are at the heart of the Cyber Resilience Act. Smart home devices, wearables, and connected appliances process sensitive user data and are permanently connected to the internet. The CRA demands security by default, regular updates, and transparent vulnerability communication from manufacturers.
View industry detailsEnergy & Building Technology
Energy and building technology forms the backbone of critical infrastructure. Smart meters, building automation, and energy management systems are increasingly connected, placing them firmly in the focus of the Cyber Resilience Act. The overlap with critical infrastructure requirements and NIS2 makes the compliance landscape particularly complex.
View industry detailsIndustrial Components & Tier 1 Suppliers
As a component manufacturer, you stand at the center of the CRA supply chain. Your drives, sensors, and controllers are integrated into the end products of numerous OEMs. The Cyber Resilience Act requires every component with digital elements to meet security requirements, and your OEM customers increasingly demand proof.
View industry detailsAgriculture & Smart Farming
The digitization of agriculture brings connected sensors, autonomous field robots, and data-driven management systems to the field. The Cyber Resilience Act captures these products and presents AgriTech manufacturers with new challenges, particularly in remote update delivery and securing devices under harsh operating conditions.
View industry detailsTelecom & Network Equipment
Network equipment forms the critical infrastructure of the digital society. Routers, gateways, and edge devices are privileged network components with far-reaching access rights. The Cyber Resilience Act classifies many of these products in higher risk classes and demands particularly stringent security measures.
View industry detailsSoftware & SaaS Products
Software is at the core of the Cyber Resilience Act: Whether desktop application, mobile app, or cloud-based platform, software products are explicitly covered as products with digital elements. For software vendors and SaaS providers, this means new obligations for vulnerability handling, SBOM creation, and security documentation that must be reconciled with agile release cycles.
View industry detailsEmbedded Systems & Firmware
Firmware is the invisible foundation of modern products with digital elements and a central topic of the Cyber Resilience Act. Embedded systems in control units, microcontrollers, and real-time systems often have lifecycles spanning decades. The CRA demands continuous security updates, complete SBOMs, and structured vulnerability processes even for these systems.
View industry detailsSmart Home & Consumer Electronics
Smart home devices and connected consumer electronics are at the center of the Cyber Resilience Act. From smart speakers and wearables to connected appliances: millions of devices in private households process sensitive data and face constant cyber risks. The CRA classifies many of these products as particularly critical and demands stringent security measures.
View industry detailsWhere Does Your Organization Stand?
Most manufacturers fall into one of two categories. Identify your current position to understand where Kunnus delivers the greatest impact.
Compliance program not yet established
- No dedicated CRA responsibility assigned within the organization
- No structured SBOM generation or management process
- No continuous vulnerability monitoring for deployed products
- CRA compliance not yet integrated into product development lifecycle
- Products with digital elements sold in the EU without a compliance roadmap
Existing processes reaching their limits
- SBOM management relying on spreadsheets or manual documentation
- Vulnerability tracking through ad-hoc research rather than automation
- Compliance evidence distributed across multiple systems and teams
- No consolidated view of CRA readiness across the product portfolio
- Multiple disconnected tools creating overhead without integration
The Kunnus Platform
From automated SBOM lifecycle management to real-time vulnerability intelligence and audit-ready documentation — Kunnus consolidates your entire CRA compliance workflow in a single platform.
