Time remaining until mandatory CRA reporting:
What are the primary challenges of the EU Cyber Resilience Act?
> According to the European Commission, the EU Cyber Resilience Act establishes mandatory cybersecurity requirements for hardware and software**products** **with digital elements**. Non-compliance results in severe administrative fines of up to **€15,000,000** or **2.5%** of the offender’s total worldwide annual turnover for the preceding financial year, whichever is higher.
24-hour reporting
Organizations must notify authorities of any actively exploited vulnerability or incident within 24 hours of discovery — a timeline that leaves no room for manual coordination or fragmented data.
Scattered security data
The data CRA reporting depends on lives across SIEMs, threat feeds, KEV alerts, and tickets, disconnected from the scanner findings, SBOM data, and ownership required to file, with no single system of record.
Partial CRA-ready tooling
The market is full of SBOM-only tools, scanner-only platforms, and GRC suites with bolt-on CRA modules. True readiness takes a unified data model, exploit-aware prioritization, and a provable audit trail.

How Does ArmorCode Simplify CRA Compliance?
CRA-ready in weeks,
not years
CRA readiness is a platform problem, not a point tool or a bolted-on GRC module. ArmorCode unifies the scattered data, status, and evidence that disclosure depends on into a single system of record.
This same platform already powers exposure management across the SDLC, tracks the 24-hour, 72-hour, and 14-day clocks as data and turns CRA from a regulatory burden into a repeatable, audit-ready operating motion.
A single system of record for CRA
Unify the data, status, and evidence that disclosure depends on.
Unified Vulnerability Management (UVM)
See one prioritized view of risk across your entire technology stack.
Exploit-aware risk prioritization
Rank vulnerabilities by real-world exploitability, so actively exploited threats rise to the top.
Disclosure workflows wired to ENISA timelines
Gain disclosure workflows that track the CRA 24-hour, 72-hour, and 14-day reporting clocks as data, not calendar reminders.
Software Supply Chain Security (SSCS)
Generate and share tamper-resistant SBOM and VEX disclosures from a single platform.
Exception Management & audit-ready evidence
Prove continuous CRA compliance on demand, not in a fire drill.
AI acceleration
Leverage Anya, ArmorCode’s agentic AI framework, to speed CRA readiness and vulnerability remediation.
Frequently Asked Questions

Customer Testimonials
ArmorCode customers are ready. Are you?
> “The Cyber Resilience Act is redefining accountability for cybersecurity by extending focus beyond operators to the security capabilities of product suppliers. In anticipation, we proactively aligned our development processes with IEC 62443-4-1 and invested in scalable solutions to operationalize security. With ArmorCode, we are achieving the visibility and automation needed to consolidate vulnerability data, streamline disclosure workflows, and track risk in real time—enabling us to meet the pace and scale that the CRA demands while reinforcing customer trust.”
 Larry Lowe [](https://www.linkedin.com/in/larry-lowe-2a6335b/) Chief Product Security Officer, Wabtec
> “The operational gap that the CRA exposes is very real. Vulnerability data scattered across dozens of tools, hundreds of applications, no unified disclosure workflow, no system of record for CRA, that’s the environment most product security teams are facing today. ArmorCode addresses exactly that gap: a platform that turns the CRA from a compliance mandate to a dependable operating model.”
Bobby Bauer [](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobby-bauer/) BISO, Pearson
> “ArmorCode has made our Product Security team more efficient in addressing vulnerabilities and staying in compliance.”
 Gartner Peer Insights Senior Leader, $1B Software Company
> “My experience with ArmorCode has been positive. We have seen remarkable improvements in the security compliance of our applications since implementing the tool. Its functionality has significantly enhanced our ability to manage vulnerabilities.”
 Gartner Peer Insights Lead Security Engineer, $30B Banking Institution
