> EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) coverage by KYE Protocol™ — every requirement bijection-mapped to the KYE™ artefact that enforces it.

EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)

# EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) — 86% of in-scope requirements covered.

13 requirements · 11 in scope (8 enforced · 3 designed) · 2 out-of-scope (outside KYE™’s authority layer). The 86% is weighted over the in-scope base.

**Source:** Regulation (EU) 2024/2847 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2024 on horizontal cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements (Cyber Resilience Act). Fully applicable 11 December 2027; the vulnerability-and-incident reporting obligation (Article 14) applies from 11 September 2026.

## By category

| Category | Reqs | Enforced | Designed | Advisory | Deferred | Coverage |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Conformity assessment, CE marking & market surveillance (Articles 13, 32, Annex VII) | 2 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | **50%** |
| Reporting of actively exploited vulnerabilities & severe incidents (Article 14) | 2 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | **100%** |
| Essential cybersecurity requirements — security-by-design (Annex I, Part I) | 4 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | **100%** |
| Vulnerability handling requirements (Annex I, Part II) + SBOM | 5 | 2 | 2 | 0 | 0 | **75%** |
