Description
Implemented Regulation 2024/2847 amending the Cyber Resilience Act (2020/1828) including notification of conformity assessment bodies
On 11 June 2026, Regulation 2024/2847 on horizontal cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements, amending Regulations (EU) No 168/2013 and (EU) No 2019/1020 and the Cyber Resilience Act (2020/1828), enters into force. The EU Regulation (2024/2847) on the Cyber Resilience Act aims to enhance the cybersecurity of products with digital elements by establishing uniform cybersecurity requirements across the EU. The regulation applies to all products with digital elements, including hardware and software, that are placed on the EU market, excluding those covered by specific existing regulations, such as medical devices and motor vehicles. Chapter IV outlines the process for notifying and monitoring conformity assessment bodies (CABs) in the EU. Member States designate authorities to assess and notify CABs, ensuring their independence, competence, and impartiality. CABs must meet strict requirements and report to authorities, while the Commission maintains a public list of notified bodies. Coordination and information exchange between Member States and CABs ensure consistency and compliance with the Cyber Resilience Act across the Union.
