Fwd: ✉️ You’re invited to our next Tech Talk - - CRA Readiness: A Practitioner’s Guide

Hi folks,

OpenSSF is running a Tech Talk on the new EU Cyber Resilience Act and how
manufacturers can work with open source to become compliant in time for the

The EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) has officially shifted from policy
discussion to operational reality. With critical reporting milestones
arriving in September 2026 and full compliance required by 2027, software
manufacturers, commercial teams, and open source stewards are actively
updating their supply chain security practices.
If you are evaluating how CRA requirements impact your software development
lifecycle, join us for our upcoming OpenSSF Tech Talk:
