The CRACY project, funded by the European Union under the DIGITAL programme, addresses the challenges faced by enterprises in adhering to the European Union’s recent Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). In that context, CRACY will particularly focus on challenges encountered by SMEs and micro enterprises. As companies increasingly develop products with digital components, including Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial IoT (IIoT) devices, they must meet rigorous cybersecurity standards. CRACY aims to provide comprehensive support through practical tools, expert guidance, training, and evaluations to enable these companies to comply with the essential security requirements in the Regulation. The project facilitates streamlined compliance assessments and fosters improved resilience in software and hardware development, ultimately contributing to a more secure digital ecosystem.

As a key partner in the CRACY consortium, Timelex brings its expertise in legal and regulatory compliance to the project. Timelex is primarily responsible for ensuring that the guidance and tools developed align with European cybersecurity legislation, including the CRA, NIS/NIS2 directives, and related standards. Timelex also contributes to the dissemination of legal insights and training materials to help companies, including SMEs, navigate the evolving regulatory landscape effectively.

The CRACY project is expected to deliver:

• A suite of compliance tools, including tools specifically tailored for SMEs, to assess and meet CRA requirements.
• Training modules and informational resources to enhance awareness of cybersecurity obligations.
• Practical support for the development and evaluation of secure IoT and IIoT products.
• A framework for continuous improvement in cybersecurity compliance, benefiting SMEs and advancing EU cybersecurity resilience.
   

This project is a testament to Timelex’s dedication to bridging the gap between complex cybersecurity regulations and the practical needs of businesses. By combining technological innovation with legal expertise, CRACY empowers companies to contribute to a safer digital ecosystem.
