EU's CRA rules take effect: report exploits within 24 hours

  • Manufacturers must notify regulators of exploited vulnerabilities within 24 hours
  • More detailed information about the incident is required later
  • Commercial hardware and software crypto wallets are covered by the law
  • Non-commercial open-source is exempt from some requirements
Why it matters: Crypto wallets in the EU are now regulated like ordinary software, forcing manufacturers to speed up vulnerability disclosure.
