SFP#39: Policy and EU: CRA and what’s next?

We are talking about the Cyber Resilience Act and the challenges, you, our community, and many others, pointed out. With our 39th episode Bonnie and Alex follow up on the questionnaire we put to you for the Cyber Resilience Act and present the key findings.

Together with the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), the FSFE has created three separate questionnaires for OSS stewards, project maintainers and manufacturers. Bonnie and Alex discuss the most important findings from the questionnaires and take a closer look at the challenges that stewards, project maintainers and manufacturers face. But they also see light at the end of the tunnel.

Find out more about the challenges in regards to the implementation of the CRA and what next steps are lying ahead of us.
