Overview
Digital regulations such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) are transforming the cybersecurity landscape across Europe. While these new requirements aim to strengthen the security of digital products, many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) face challenges in translating them into practical actions.
OCCTET is addressing this gap by developing a practical, open-source toolkit designed specifically to support SMEs in navigating CRA compliance. The toolkit focuses on simplicity, accessibility, and relevance, and it is built around the realities and needs of SMEs.
From the beginning, the project has been shaped by direct input from businesses and experts to ensure the solutions developed are both useful and usable.
