EU CRA compliance as a key topic at Embedded World 2026
Cybersecurity regulation is becoming a central theme in embedded product development, and the EU Cyber Resilience Act will be a prominent topic at Embedded World 2026. As firmware plays a foundational role in system security, CRA requirements directly impact BIOS development practices, vulnerability handling and long-term product support.
Our partner Insyde Software uses Embedded World 2026 to demonstrate how UEFI firmware can support CRA-aligned development. By integrating security controls, vulnerability visibility and SBOM automation into the firmware layer, manufacturers gain earlier control over compliance risks in the product lifecycle.
This approach aligns regulatory readiness with engineering reality, especially for embedded products with long operational lifetimes.
Managing CRA obligations across the product lifecycle
From 2026 onwards, manufacturers must be able to report exploited vulnerabilities and remediate issues throughout the full product lifecycle. For long-lived embedded products, this requires visibility into firmware composition and the ability to respond quickly when vulnerabilities arise.
Insyde's firmware tooling supports this by enabling insight into BIOS components, vulnerability impact assessment and timely remediation, reducing both operational and regulatory risk.
SBOM transparency without added overhead
The CRA mandates a machine-readable Software Bill of Materials from 2027. Insyde integrates SBOM generation directly into the firmware workflow, making firmware transparency part of standard development rather than a late compliance activity.
What this means for Logic Technology customers
Logic Technology helps customers translate CRA requirements into practical engineering decisions. CRA compliance is approached as part of a broader embedded security and lifecycle strategy, not as a standalone checklist.
To support this, Logic offers a CRA Compliance Scan that provides insight into current risks and priorities across hardware, firmware and software.
