A clear overview of CRA obligations and how Digi and NXP help OEMs secure products, manage vulnerabilities, and maintain compliance.

The Cyber Resilience Act has fundamentally redefined the digital landscape, shifting the responsibility of cybersecurity directly onto manufacturers for the entire lifespan of their products. Non-compliance is no longer just a technical risk—it is a significant business threat that can lead to massive fines of up to €15 million or 2.5% of global turnover. This whitepaper details how to build a robust “security by design” foundation, starting with NXP’s hardware-rooted trust and extending through Digi’s automated vulnerability monitoring and secure over-the-air (OTA) updates. By mastering critical requirements like SBOM management, proactive vulnerability patching, and 24-hour incident reporting, you can transform complex regulatory hurdles into a competitive advantage that builds lasting customer trust and ensures global market resilience.

Key Takeaways:

  • Mandatory EU cybersecurity rules
  • Lifecycle‑wide vulnerability management
  • Digi + NXP tools simplify compliance
