The IEC 62443-4-1 ↔ EU CRA crosswalk

Which 62443-4-1 requirements relate to each Cyber Resilience Act obligation, how closely — and where 62443 alone won’t get you there.

Coverage at a glance

If you already run an IEC 62443-4-1 secure development lifecycle, much of your CRA evidence exists — in a different shape. This crosswalk shows where each CRA obligation lands in 62443-4-1, so you can re-point that evidence rather than start again.

The gaps

Where 62443 alone won’t get you there

A mature 62443-4-1 programme covers a great deal of the CRA. It does not cover all of it, and where it does, it often proves you have a process rather than that the product has the property. Our crosswalk applies one rule throughout: a process obligation cannot discharge a product-property obligation.

No coverage · 1

Article 14(4): no 62443-4-1 requirement relates to it

Article 14(4) sets the reporting clock for severe incidents affecting the security of your product: an early warning within 24 hours of becoming aware, an incident notification within 72 hours, and a final report within one month of that notification. No 62443-4-1 requirement in the crosswalk relates to it, and Article 14 reporting has applied since 11 September 2026. The evidence has to come from an incident-response and reporting process you build for the CRA.

No direct link · 17

Every Annex I Part I product property — and three process duties

All 14 Annex I Part I essential requirements relate to 62443-4-1 only partially or in a supporting role. 62443-4-1 is a process standard: it can show that you designed, tested and documented for secure-by-default, access control or attack-surface reduction — not that the product you ship has those properties. That takes product-level evidence.

Two Article 13 duties and the Article 14(3) duty to notify severe incidents sit here too — 62443-4-1 contributes part of the evidence, not all of it:

This page tells you which 62443-4-1 requirements relate to each obligation. It cannot tell you whether your evidence would be accepted. That judgment — what an assessor would accept, and how to close the gaps 62443 alone doesn’t — is what the CRA Workbench does.

Article 13(8)Article 13 Vulnerability handling for the support period SM-11DM-4 Direct link

Regulation (EU) 2024/2847 · Article 13(8) · Official Journal text

Manufacturers shall ensure, when placing a product with digital elements on the market, and for the support period, that vulnerabilities of that product, including its components, are handled effectively and in accordance with the essential cybersecurity requirements set out in Part II of Annex I. Manufacturers shall determine the support period so that it reflects the length of time during which the product is expected to be in use, taking into account, in particular, reasonable user expectations, the nature of the product, including its intended purpose, as well as relevant Union law determining the lifetime of products with digital elements. When determining the support period, manufacturers may also take into account the support periods of products with digital elements offering a similar functionality placed on the market by other manufacturers, the availability of the operating environment, the support periods of integrated components that provide core functions and are sourced from third parties as well as relevant guidance provided by the dedicated administrative cooperation group (ADCO) established pursuant to Article 52(15) and the Commission. The matters to be taken into account in order to determine the support period shall be considered in a manner that ensures proportionality. Without prejudice to the second subparagraph, the support period shall be at least five years. Where the product with digital elements is expected to be in use for less than five years, the support period shall correspond to the expected use time. Taking into account ADCO recommendations as referred to in Article 52(16), the Commission may adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 61 to supplement this Regulation by specifying the minimum support period for specific product categories where the market surveillance data suggests inadequate support periods. Manufacturers shall include the information that was taken into account to determine the support period of a product with digital elements in the technical documentation as set out in Annex VII. Manufacturers shall have appropriate policies and procedures, including coordinated vulnerability disclosure policies, referred to in Part II, point (5), of Annex I to process and remediate potential vulnerabilities in the product with digital elements reported from internal or external sources.

How to read the mapping

Every link is typed. The relation is always intersects-with — the OSCAL relation for two requirements that overlap without either containing the other. What varies is how close the link is, and how sure we are of it.

DirectThe 62443-4-1 requirement’s process and records are the main evidence for this obligation.
PartialIt covers part of the obligation. Something else has to supply the rest.
SupportingIt supports the obligation but does not constitute it — typically a process that evidences a product property.
ConfidenceHow sure the determination is: high, medium or low. Strength and confidence are separate: a link can be confidently supporting.

IEC 62443-4-1 organises its requirements into eight practices. The requirement identifiers carry the practice prefix:

  1. SM Practice 1 · Security management
  2. SR Practice 2 · Specification of security requirements
  3. SD Practice 3 · Secure by design
  4. SI Practice 4 · Secure implementation
  5. SVV Practice 5 · Security verification and validation testing
  6. DM Practice 6 · Management of security-related issues

  8. SG Practice 8 · Security guidelines

This crosswalk is general information about Regulation (EU) 2024/2847, not legal advice. Figures and dates are verified against primary sources, but the CRA’s harmonised-standards landscape is still settling — confirm against the current official text before relying on any point. The mapping to IEC 62443-4-1 is our own analysis, not an official or harmonised correspondence, and using 62443-4-1 does not confer a presumption of conformity with the CRA. The CRA Workbench is software that produces draft documentation for expert review; it indicates the evidence needed and does not, by itself, guarantee compliance.
