Duration

60 minutes

Preparing MCU/MPU products for CRA compliance

As the standards and implementation of the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) become clearer in 2026, CRA compliance for MCU/MPU products is moving into the practical implementation stage.

In this webinar, our experts cover key CRA considerations for MCU/MPU products, including hardware and firmware security, vulnerability management, conformity assessment, and practical examples from industrial, consumer, and automotive applications.

The session includes an MCU/MPU CRA compliance 
​self-assessment checklist.
Understand the requirements
Prepare your products

Explore CRA requirements for embedded chips, firmware security, tamper protection, and vulnerability lifecycle management.

Identify common gaps in hardware security, firmware updates, Trusted Execution Environments (TEE), and secure OTA implementation.
Navigate the conformity assessment process
Learn from practical examples

Understand 
the conformity assessment process, testing and evaluation requirements, certification timelines, and cost considerations.

Learn from 
MCU/MPU
compliance case studies and discuss product-specific questions with the experts.
