The CRA Readiness Reality: What Changed (and What Didn’t) Between 2025 and 2026?
-
In 2025, Linux Foundation Research, Linux Foundation Europe, and Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) published Unaware and Uncertain: The Stark Realities of Cyber Resilience Act Readiness in Open Source. It took a survey-based look at how prepared the open source ecosystem was for the European Union’s Cyber Resilience Act (EU CRA). The headline finding was blunt: 62% of respondents had little to no familiarity with a regulation that would reshape how software gets built, shipped, and maintained across global supply chains. The hope was that with a year to go before the CRA enters into force, community education initiatives and a growing body of guidance would move the readiness needle.
