Declarations of Conformity (CRA) and NIS2 seamlessly integrated within your processes.
Secure IT Landscape (NIS2) for Secure Software Engineering (CRA)
We support your organisation in raising the security level of your products with digital elements. We help you meet the technical and regulatory requirements of the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the NIS 2 Directive — through tailored integration and automation. Our established and well-attuned approaches bring security into your software development without impacting your productivity.
We guide organizations through every phase of CRA readiness — from portfolio assessment to secure-by-design implementation. Our structured methodology ensures your connected products meet regulatory security and documentation requirements while maintaining development agility.
We design and implement CE workflows that align technical documentation, test evidence, and manufacturer declarations. With our support, your CE process becomes traceable, audit-ready, and seamlessly integrated into your product lifecycle.
We gonna make your Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC) processes smooth and pragmatic. Through gap analyses, best-practice frameworks, and integration into your existing QMS structures, we get your security and compliance as a natural part of your daily operations.
Our experts ensure that your software meets the latest cybersecurity and legal expectations. From secure coding and vulnerability management to verification & validation — we help you prove and maintain compliance according to IEC 62443-4-1, IEC-62443-4-2, ISO 27001, and CRA requirements.
We support teams in developing new products under Security-by-Design principles. Through architecture reviews, dependency checks, and automated test/documentation pipelines, we help you launch secure, CRA-ready products faster or keep your fast-paced productivity alive.
Legacy systems remain critical to many businesses. We encapsulate, isolate, and secure your existing software in controlled environments (VMs or containers) — enabling continued operation and CRA-conformity without costly redevelopment.
From the initial assessment of whether NIS2 applies to your organisation, through the introduction of an Information Security Management System (ISMS) based on ISO 27001, to communication with the supervisory authority — we accompany you step by step.
We assess your NIS2 applicability, identify areas for action, develop a clear implementation roadmap, and establish robust structures for supply chain protection, incident reporting, and long-term compliance.

Your Guidance to Compliancy
Integrate CE conformity workflows directly into your development pipelines for traceable, audit-ready product releases through automation, and tooling w/o additional pain for your engineering team.
Design and implement structured, secure development workflows that align with CRA, IEC 62443-4-1, and ISO 27001 standards without losing your development speed.
Modernize or encapsulate existing systems to achieve CRA readiness and extend the lifecycle of legacy products securely. Keep your cash cow alive by retrofitting them.
Assess product portfolios abd development processes to verify your CRA readiness. Identify regulatory gaps, and develop individually tailored strategies to achieve full Cyber Resilience Act compliance painlessly.
Ensure your software's security requirements are met through structured testing, vulnerability analysis, and audit-ready documentation; as part of your automated test suite.
Lead and coordinate cross-functional teams to ensure smooth integration of CRA and CE requirements into ongoing projects to be able to sell your products safely after the CRA must be fulfilled.
Non-compliance brings your business to the edge of existential threat
Non-Compliance Aspects Embraces Every Layer — Product, Process, Reporting, Documentation & each leads to Heavy Fines, Sanctions, and Long-Term Legal Exposure
Non-compliance with the essential cybersecurity requirements as set out in Annex I and the obligations set out in Articles 13 and 14.
Non-compliance with the obligations set out in Articles 18 to 23, Article 28, Article 30(1) to (4), Article 31(1) to (4), Article 32(1), (2) and (3), Article 33(5), and Articles 39, 41, 47, 49 and 53

From the video series "Zukunftssicherer Mittelstand"
Since 2022, we have been following and explaining the development of the Cyber Resilience Act. Two early analyses from our YouTube series "Zukunftssicherer Mittelstand" show which questions have shaped the European debate from the very beginning – complemented by the LinkedIn posts of the original publications.

When the European Commission presented its CRA draft in 2022, we broke down what the planned requirements would mean for manufacturers, product development, and users. The recording shows which questions have shaped the further path of the Cyber Resilience Act from the very beginning.
From the archive202310:33
By 2023, the European debate had gained considerably more shape. Our update brings together the most important developments and points of discussion – with a view to their relevance for manufacturers and product owners.

FAQs
Answers to the most important questions about CRA readiness, secure development, and our approach to compliance.
We help organizations achieve Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and CE compliance by integrating security, process management, and software engineering best practices. Our services cover the full lifecycle — from secure product development and retrofit solutions to training, audits, and certification support.
We primarily work with manufacturers, software vendors, system integrators, resellers and importers and importers who need to demonstrate CRA compliance to ensure that their products can continue to be sold on the EU market.
The EU Cyber Resilience Act introduces binding cybersecurity requirements for connected products sold in the EU. It ensures that software and hardware are secure by design, maintained throughout their lifecycle, and supported by transparent documentation. Compliance is essential for continued market access and customer trust.
Yes. Our Refit/Retrofit approach encapsulates legacy software in controlled environments — such as containers or VMs — to isolate vulnerabilities and enforce secure operation without a full redevelopment.
Timelines depend on product complexity and organizational maturity. After an initial GAP analysis, we provide a clear roadmap with milestones — ranging from quick improvements to full compliance integration.
Yes. We specialize in embedding compliance workflows directly into your development and quality-management systems, ensuring traceability, automation, and minimal disruption to existing pipelines.
Well, not much. We are specialized in smooth integration within your development processes. We have well-attuned approaches and automations at hand, which foster your given engineering process instead of instead of tossing them aside.
No. If you have well trained engineers with a vast amount of experience in secure development and automation, you can use the outcomes of our GAP Analysis to get CRA-compliant without any further consultancy – but it may takes longer and is less error-prone.
