EMV 2025: Keynote speech and workshops on the new cybersecurity rules for wireless products
In October 2024, the European Union passed the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) for products with a digital component to improve Europe’s resilience and security in the digital future. The requirements of the CRA apply in full from December 2027. However, products with wireless interfaces must comply with the new cybersecurity requirements from 1 August 2025.
At the EMV 2025, Luis Miguel Vega Fidalgo from the European Commission will explain the background to the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the new cybersecurity requirements in his keynote speech The EU Product Cybersecurity Policy – Challenges and Opportunities.
