Cybersecurity Testing in the European Union 

What is Cybersecurity Testing in the EU? 

Cybersecurity testing in the European Union evaluates whether connected products, radio equipment, and software meet the security requirements set out in EU law, including the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the cybersecurity provisions of the Radio Equipment Directive (RED) under EN 18031.

Why is Cybersecurity Testing in the European Union Important? 

Regulatory Compliance Across Member States

The Cyber Resilience Act and RED cybersecurity requirements apply across all EU member states. Meeting standards such as EN 18031 and ETSI EN 303-645 is necessary to demonstrate conformity and avoid delays, fines, or market withdrawal.

Market Access for CE Marking

Cybersecurity testing supports the technical documentation needed for CE marking of radio equipment and connected products. Without it, manufacturers risk being unable to legally place products on the EU market.

Consumer and Data Protection

EU cybersecurity requirements are designed to protect consumers’ data and privacy from vulnerable connected devices. Testing verifies that products properly manage credentials, secure communications, and software updates before reaching the market.
