Artificial intelligence is shifting from passive prediction engines to agentic , autonomous systems that reason, coordinate, and act across digital environments. These systems do not wait for instructions. They interpret goals, make decisions, invoke tools, and interface with critical infrastructure . Yet, the security approach used for this new intelligence remains anchored in the past. The Limitations of Traditional Security Approaches Today’s industry still relies on static guardrails ...

The EU Cyber Resilience Act transforms open-source and firmware security from voluntary practice to legal requirement. By December 2027, every organization building digital products must prove components are secure, traceable, and continuously maintained. SBOMs become mandatory under Article 10, firmware vulnerabilities must be disclosed to ENISA within 24 hours, and secure-by-design principles must be embedded across CI/CD pipelines. Compliance is now a competitive advantage.

The EU Cyber Resilience Act, enforceable December 2027, transforms cybersecurity from voluntary guidance to binding law. It mandates SBOMs, 24-hour vulnerability reporting to ENISA, and secure-by-design principles for all digital products sold in the EU. Penalties reach €15M or 2.5% of global turnover. Together with EO 14028 and NIST CSF 2.0, these frameworks make supply-chain transparency the new baseline for market access and customer trust.
