No CRA compliance. No EU market access.
Many manufacturers underestimate the effort behind CRA, CE marking and the required evidence. Critical processes, security activities and documentation needed for conformity are often missing. The later these gaps surface, the higher the effort, cost and project risk.
Implementing Product Security. Not Just Explaining It.
Most manufacturers don't know how far their products and machinery actually are from CRA conformity. Critical gaps often surface only just before audits, conformity assessments, or market launches.
We close the gaps in everyday engineering, take manufacturers through the conformity assessment, and produce the evidence required for CE and CRA.
Product Focus
We specialize in products and development processes – not general IT security or data privacy.
End-to-End Support
We take you from reading the requirements through implementation to approval and certification.
Industry Experience
Experience from projects in machinery and equipment manufacturing, and from working with Notified Bodies.
Management & Engineering
We speak the language of decision-makers while working hands-on with technical teams.
Our Approach
How We Support Manufacturers
Product cybersecurity does not work as a set of isolated fixes. It needs an approach that brings the regulation together with the development processes you already run and what is technically possible.
We take manufacturers from a first assessment to solutions they can act on – transparent, verifiable, and compatible with existing organizational structures.
CRA Applicability & Gap Assessment
We determine which CRA requirements actually apply to your products and machinery, then identify the missing processes, security activities and evidence that would otherwise stop a conformity assessment later on.
Prioritize the Right Actions
Not every gap is equally critical. We assess regulatory impact, implementation effort and project risk, then develop a practical roadmap covering product, engineering and organizational measures.
Build CRA-Conform Products and Processes
We support implementation throughout the development lifecycle. This includes technical security measures, secure development practices, vulnerability management and the documentation required for compliance.
Build Evidence & Demonstrate Conformity
Finally, we establish the technical and organizational evidence required for CRA and CE compliance. The result is a solid foundation for conformity assessments, audits and certifications.
Our Services
CRA & Product Regulation
Manufacturers placing products or machinery on the EU market from 11 Dec 2027 must meet the CRA's requirements and be able to prove it.
- Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) & EN 40000
- RED Delegated Act & EN 18031
- EU Machinery Regulation & EN 50742
Approval & Certification
What counts is not documentation alone but a passed conformity assessment. We prepare audits and assessments with testing and Notified Bodies.
- CE Conformity Assessment
- IEC 62443 Certifications
- Audit Support & Preparation
Secure Product Development Lifecycle
The CRA requires demonstrable product security across the full lifecycle. We establish development, testing, release and maintenance processes that meet all requirements.
- IEC 62443-4-1 & EN 40000
- Threat Modeling & Reviews
- Vulnerability & Supplier Management
Security Engineering
The CRA's cybersecurity requirements have to live in the product, not in documentation. We implement secure boot, cryptography, access control, and security architecture directly in the device.
- Secure Boot & Firmware Protection
- Cryptography & Key Management
- Access Control & Security Architecture
Penetration Testing & Vulnerability Analysis
No demonstrable testing. No CRA compliance. We deliver pentests and vulnerability analyses as solid evidence for CRA, IEC 62443, and conformity assessments.
- Hardware & Software Testing
- Communication & Interface Analysis
- Testing per IEC 62443 & ISO/IEC 17025
External Product Security Officer (PSO)
CRA obligations don't end with the CE marking. We coordinate vulnerability management, reporting duties, security updates and ongoing compliance as your external Product Security Officer.
- Product Security Governance
- Security Activity Coordination
- Building Your Internal Security Team

Why Choose Secuvise
Why Manufacturers Work With Secuvise
Manufacturers that don't meet the CRA's requirements risk problems with CE marking, market placement, and market surveillance. Fines of up to €15 million or 2.5 % of global annual revenue, plus regulatory action, are among the possible consequences.
Secuvise connects regulatory requirements with the technical reality of development projects.
Product Focus, Not IT Security
We work exclusively on products with digital elements. Our focus is on architecture, development, lifecycle, and approval – not traditional IT or data privacy consulting.
Regulation and Engineering Combined
We connect CRA with parallel regulation (RED DA, Machinery Regulation) and concrete technical implementation. That removes friction between compliance, engineering, and management.
Experience from Real Development Projects
Our work is based on actual industry projects – from mid-sized companies to global corporations. We understand typical trade-offs, time pressures, and technical constraints from practice.
Close to Approval and Certification
Our deliverables are built to land directly in conformity assessments and audits.
What Our Clients Say About Us
Secuvise has always supported us closely and reliably in developing our security concepts. The collaboration has been consistently constructive and collegial, exceeding our expectations. I look forward to continued partnership across all areas of cybersecurity.
We faced the challenge of bringing our entire mobile robot portfolio into EN 18031 compliance under significant time pressure. Secuvise did not just provide advice, but actively supported us hands-on – from structured information gathering and gap analysis through to executing conformity testing. Without this pragmatic support, we would not have met our deadline.
For regulatory compliance of our products, we needed a partner who combines technical depth with practical implementability. Working with Secuvise was straightforward, and their solutions integrated well into our development process.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of companies does Secuvise work with?
We work with manufacturers of products with digital elements – particularly in machinery, equipment, and device manufacturing, automation, and the embedded/IIoT space. Our clients range from technology-driven mid-sized companies to international corporations.
Does Secuvise only help with regulation, or also with technical implementation?
Both. Cybersecurity requirements always have two sides, a technical one and a process one. We cover both: reading the regulation and turning it into practice, and the hands-on work on architecture, cryptography, secure boot, update mechanisms and security reviews.
Does Secuvise take on ongoing responsibility in projects?
Yes. Beyond one-off projects, we can take on a continuous role if desired – for example, as an external Product Security Officer or as technical support across multiple project phases.
Does Secuvise work with testing bodies and Notified Bodies?
Yes. Our services are designed to be compatible with conformity assessments, approvals, and certifications. We have worked with testing bodies before and support the preparation, the coordination and the audit itself.
What happens in an initial consultation?
In a 30-minute initial call we clarify your situation, affected products, and CRA-relevant deadlines. We work out what has to happen before 11 Dec 2027 and where we can help.
