EU Cyber Resilience Act Mandates 24-Hour Vulnerability Reporting

The European Union has activated key provisions of the Cyber Resilience Act, requiring manufacturers of products with digital elements to report actively exploited vulnerabilities within 24 hours. This regulation applies to connected hardware and software, including commercial crypto wallets sold in the EU market. Companies must now prioritize early warnings over waiting for full technical investigations, necessitating updated incident response processes for security and engineering teams.
