Open Source is the engine of innovation, but the CRA introduces new responsibilities, particularly for those who commercialize these solutions.
If you integrate Open Source components into a commercial product, you become legally responsible for their security in the eyes of the European Union. You must ensure the maintenance and patching of these components.
The CRA requires a full SBOM including all third-party libraries. Don't let an obsolete component compromise your entire compliance and legal liability.
