In this interactive Lunch & Learn session, we will share practical lessons learned from real-world projects that have taken products from concept to compliance under the CRA framework. Attendees will gain insights into: how to integrate CRA security requirements directly into design and development workflows, the most common gaps uncovered during product security assessments and how to address them early, best practices for working with test laboratories and certification bodies to streamline the path to compliance and why early security design decisions can significantly reduce compliance costs and accelerate time to market.
