The EU’s new Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is changing the rules for digital product development. For small and medium-sized businesses, especially in manufacturing, this means navigating a complex regulatory environment with limited resources. Meeting the new cybersecurity requirements often demands time, expertise, and internal capacity – all of which are already under pressure.
CRACoWi – short for Cyber Resilience Act Compliance Wizard – is a European innovation project co-funded by the EU. It brings together 14 partners from four countries, including technology experts, research institutions, and SMEs like erminas. Our shared goal: make CRA compliance simple, efficient, and achievable for companies of all sizes.
CRACoWi provides a digital assistant that guides manufacturers and product teams step-by-step through the compliance process. The tool integrates cybersecurity into the entire product lifecycle – from initial concept through development, market launch, and post-market updates. With automated self-assessments, structured documentation, and built-in support for certification, CRACoWi makes compliance manageable and transparent.
