【EU Cyber】The EU Cyber Resilience Act’s New Enforcement Phase.
The ONE reminds all manufacturers and brands exporting to the EU market:
Do not focus solely on pre-market CRA compliance; more importantly, do not overlook the risks of post-market surveillance and random inspections.
The EU has recently completed a significant step in the CRA market surveillance cooperation mechanism, indicating that the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is progressing from a legal text toward practical enforcement and international coordination.
According to the latest official EU update, the CRA Administrative Cooperation Group (AdCo) has held its first meeting and elected its Chair and Vice-Chairs.
The EU clearly stated that this is a vital development in preparing for CRA enforcement.
The CRA adopts a post-market surveillance model, meaning that once a product enters the EU market, competent authorities can monitor the market, demand improvements, or even take restrictive measures.
For enterprises, this means the challenge is no longer just about “whether a product can be launched,” but rather: Whether you have established robust vulnerability management mechanisms, incident response processes, technical documentation maintenance, support period management, and the capability to handle post-market inspections.
The CRA’s requirements for reporting vulnerabilities and significant incidents will apply from September 11, 2026.
Enterprises will be required to submit an “early warning” within 24 hours of becoming aware of an issue, followed by a formal notification within 72 hours.
The ONE offers CRA consultancy services to help clients prepare in advance:
— From scope assessment and gap analysis,
— To technical documentation planning, vulnerability handling processes, incident reporting workflows, and post-market surveillance readiness.
We believe that the earlier you deploy, the better you can mitigate the risks of inspections, requests for supplementary documentation, or even impacts on your sales performance in the EU market.
If your company is preparing for CRA implementation, you are welcome to contact The ONE.
We can assist you in systematically meeting the latest CRA requirements, ensuring you are fully prepared for both product launch and post-market management.
