Title of proposal

Establishing free & open-source software's place in CRA-mandated vulnerability handling processes

CRA Standards

Horizontal standards for vulnerability requirements


What does the work you will carry out for the CYBERSTAND SSP consist of?

I engage with CEN-CENELEC/JTC13/WG9 producing horizontal standards for products with digital elements, in particular representing the interest of free and open-source software. I also speak about the Cyber Resilience Act from an open-source perspective at events.


What is the expected result and impact of this activity?

Horizontal standards for the CRA will recognise free and open-source software for the unique position it holds, as described in the Cyber Resilience Act. Meanwhile, open source projects have a growing awareness of the CRA.


Which aspects of the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) standardisation are you focusing on?

Horizontal standards, coordination with/of vertical standards, dissemination.
