SFP#37: Policy and EU: The most famous of them all – we are talking about the CRA

Most of you have heard of the famous Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), a legislation introducing CE labels for digital products. In our latest episode of the Software Freedom Podcast Bonnie and Alex have a easy to follow conversation about the CRA and what will be happening next.

Listen to Alexander Sander and Bonnie Mehring talk you through the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). The CRA has entered into force in December 2024 and since then a lot has happened. In this episode they will give you a short introduction into the CRA and dive into the current discussions surrounding its implementation. Learn how you can support the FSFE in safeguarding Free Software during the implementation process with answering the questionnaire created together by the FSFE and the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI).
