Why This Data Sheet Matters:

The CRA raises the bar for software security and accountability. Compliance now requires verifiable technical evidence, not policies or questionnaires.

Organizations must be able to demonstrate that:

• Products ship without known exploitable vulnerabilities

• Secure-by-default configurations are enforced

• SBOMs accurately reflect what is deployed

• Vulnerabilities are identified, prioritized, remediated, and reported on strict timelines

• Conformity documentation and CE-marking evidence can withstand regulatory scrutiny

This data sheet shows how those requirements translate into operational reality.

What You’ll Learn:

• How CRA requirements apply across the software lifecycle

• What regulators expect beyond traditional compliance checklists

• How binary-derived SBOMs support CRA technical documentation

• How exploitability and execution context impact prioritization

• How to generate audit-ready CRA evidence without source access

Key CRA Requirements Covered:

• Secure-by-Design & Secure-by-Default Evidence

• Vulnerability Handling & Patch Governance

• Supply Chain Transparency & SBOM Validation

• Operational Prioritization (What Actually Executes)

• Cryptography Visibility & Key Management

• Reporting, Disclosure & ENISA Alignment
  
  

How NetRise Supports CRA Readiness:

NetRise analyzes the final compiled software that ships and runs, enabling organizations to produce defensible CRA evidence tied to real execution.

With NetRise, teams can:

• Generate and validate binary-derived SBOMs (SPDX, CycloneDX)

• Identify vulnerabilities in startup-loaded components

• Validate kernel vulnerabilities and fixes with KVAR workflows

• Detect misconfigurations, embedded secrets, and crypto risk

• Produce CRA-aligned reports for audits, CE marking, and ENISA reporting

• Maintain version history and traceability across releases

Who This Data Sheet Is For:

• Product Security & Engineering Teams

• GRC, Compliance & Regulatory Leaders

• Software & Device Manufacturers selling into the EU

• Third-Party Risk & Procurement Teams

• Security Leaders preparing for CRA enforcement
