Hardware Compliance Requires More Than a Generic Checklist

Most cybersecurity firms understand cloud infrastructure, but they lack the low-level visibility required for physical products and embedded firmware.

The September 2026 Clock

Strict 24-hour early-warning rules for actively exploited vulnerabilities take effect immediately under Article 14, long before full CE-marking compliance in late 2027.

The Legacy Code Trap

Outdated C/C++ libraries, third-party RTOS drivers, and unverified peripheral stacks expose hidden attack surfaces deep within microcontroller memory.

The SBOM Challenge

Generating accurate, machine-readable Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) for complex component chains without slowing down your development pipeline.

The Reality of EU Regulation 2024/2847

The European Union Cyber Resilience Act fundamentally alters the landscape for anyone manufacturing physical devices, IoT hardware, and industrial control systems. Crucially, the legislation enforces a two-stage shock: the incident and vulnerability reporting rules become enforceable on September 11, 2026, while full essential requirements and CE-marking mandates apply by December 11, 2027. Generic auditors can write compliance reports, but only engineers who understand memory constraints, stack overflows, and peripheral drivers can secure your actual product architecture.

Built by Engineers, for Engineers

Compliance shouldn't be a bureaucratic tax that stalls your product release. Our practice is driven by hands-on hardware and firmware designers with over 15 years of industrial engineering experience. We speak your language—whether we are configuring Memory Protection Units (MPUs), locking JTAG/SWD debug interfaces, or implementing secure bootloaders on STM32, ARM Cortex-M, and dsPIC architectures. We work directly with your CTO and R&D teams to integrate security natively into your development workflow.

End-to-End Compliance & Engineering Services

Modular packages structured around your product release cycle and regulatory timelines.

Phase 1

CRA Scope & Applicability Assessment

Hardware architecture mapping to definitively classify your product (Default, Class I, Class II, or Critical) and ensure immediate readiness for the September 2026 reporting window.

Phase 2

Technical Codebase & Firmware Hardening

Deep-dive code audits for C/C++ implementations, RTOS configuration reviews (Zephyr/FreeRTOS), secure boot validation, and exception handling hardening.

Phase 3

Automated SBOM & Vulnerability Pipelines

Integration of automated SBOM generation tools (SPDX / CycloneDX) into your CI/CD pipelines and setup of compliant vulnerability disclosure workflows.

Phase 4

CE Marking & Technical Dossier Validation

Compilation of comprehensive technical documentation and conformity assessment packages required for seamless market access across all 27 EU member states.
