Incorporating security during design reduces costs significantly compared to retrofitting security measures after development.
Building security into the framework of an organization prevents security from being seen as a barrier to daily activities. If an employee feels as if a security measure is inhibiting them from completing their daily tasks, they're far more likely to find a way around that measure. This can range from propping open a door to using the same easy-to-remember password for every account.
The CRA fundamentally redefines how software will be built and maintained, pushing organizations to adopt more structured, transparent, and security-centered development strategies. And if you're like most commercial software developers who incorporate open source components, you'll need to account for your dependencies. Your team will need time to adapt development and security workflows to meet these new expectations. The timeline for CRA compliance is already in motion: December 2024 - The CRA came into force. This marked the start of the transition period for all affected stakeholders.
