We are thrilled to announce that CRACoWi has successfully raised 10,000,000 euros to advance its mission of strengthening cybersecurity across the European digital market. CRACoWi is an innovative project designed to address the increasing cybersecurity challenges faced by SMEs, manufacturers, distributors, and importers in the context of the European Commission’s Cyber Resilience Act. At the heart of CRACoWi is a state-of-the-art digital assistant – a wizard that provides clear, step-by-step guidance for integrating robust cybersecurity measures from the very inception of a product’s lifecycle, through its development, and even after it enters the market. This funding will enable the project team to enhance and expand the tool's capabilities, ensuring that companies of all sizes can achieve and maintain compliance with stringent EU cybersecurity standards.
The monetary injection comes at a critical time as European markets face heightened security risks and as regulatory frameworks evolve to protect consumers and businesses alike. By aligning with the EU Digital Work Program’s goals of fostering cybersecurity cooperation and building digital capacity across member states, CRACoWi is poised to become a cornerstone in the arena of cybersecurity solutions. The project, under Grant Agreement No.101158539 and supported by the European Cybersecurity Competence Centre, demonstrates the commitment of both the European Union and its partners to driving innovation and building a more secure digital future for all. This significant investment not only reflects confidence in CRACoWi’s approach but also marks a pivotal step towards a safer, more resilient European digital ecosystem.
