Webinar questions cyber resilience

ITALY: Refrigeration control company Carel will host an interactive webinar on cyber resilience and the European Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).

The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) introduces new cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements, with significant implications for manufacturers and other economic operators in the HVACR sector. 

Carel maintains that understanding these obligations and their impact on product design, development and maintenance is essential to keeping pace with the evolving regulatory landscape. 

In what Carel sees as a divergence from a traditional technical webinar, the Carel event will comprise an interactive quiz that will allow participants to test their knowledge, explore key CRA concepts and clarify the most relevant aspects for HVACR applications. There will also be prizes for those who answer the questions in the shortest time

The webinar – Cyber Resilience Act for HVAC/R: Test and Strengthen Your Knowledge – takes place on 24 November at 10:00 CET. Register here.
