The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is facing mounting criticism from industry stakeholders, with some describing the situation as a “five‑alarm fire.” Concerns centre on the law’s classification of certain digital products — particularly those tied to security and safety — as “critical,” a designation that could impose disproportionate compliance burdens on manufacturers and service providers. Many of the unresolved questions raised by the CRA are being addressed within the ORC's FAQ.
