PRODUCT CYBERSECURITY SEMINAR 2026
Turning Regulatory Compliance
into a Competitive Advantage
“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.” – Sun Tzu, The Art of War
In the rapidly evolving landscape of product cybersecurity, lack of foresight is the greatest risk. The EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) has already initiated its reporting obligations (applicable since Sept 2026), with full enforcement looming in December 2027. Concurrently, Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) will launch the JC-STAR labeling scheme for IoT products in March 2025.
For product manufacturers, system integrators, and asset owners, compliance is no longer just a technical hurdle — it is a critical strategy for market survival.
Hosted by Sun Square, this exclusive seminar brings together leading experts from the European Commission, METI, and international certification bodies to decode the intersection of the EU CRA, JC-STAR, and the ISA/IEC 62443 standards. We will guide you from abstract regulations to actionable engineering practices, documentation, and conformity assessment.
📢 Key Topics We Will Explore:
- EU CRA (Cyber Resilience Act): Reporting obligations for 2026 and the roadmap for full compliance in 2027.
- JC-STAR: Unpacking Japan’s national product security labeling scheme and policy direction.
