Navigating the Cyber Resilience Act: key concepts and guidance for the rail sector

The impact of the Cyber Resilience Act on the rail sector – and many other sectors – cannot be overstated. By imposing cybersecurity requirements on all hardware and software items, it is pushing for a major change in how we develop products and think about cybersecurity.

Join this training to explore what the Cyber Resilience Act means for the rail sector, identify key compliance obligations, and prepare your products, processes, and teams for the new regulatory landscape.

Who should attend?

Date & Time: Monday 29 June 2026, 12:00–13:00 CET

This webinar is designed for professionals across the rail ecosystem who need to understand the implications of the Cyber Resilience Act and prepare their organisations for compliance. It will be particularly valuable for:

  • Cybersecurity, IT and information security professionals
  • Product development, engineering and systems design teams
  • Compliance, legal and regulatory affairs specialists
  • Quality assurance and risk management professionals
  • Procurement and supply chain managers
  • Project managers and business leaders responsible for digital products and services
  • Representatives of railway undertakings, infrastructure managers, urban rail operators and rail suppliers

Whether you are beginning to explore the Cyber Resilience Act or are already working on compliance preparations, this webinar will provide a practical introduction to the regulation, its impact on the rail sector, and the key steps organisations should take ahead of its full application.

With 18 months left before the CRA becomes fully applicable, it is crucial for all stakeholders to be informed of the requirements and challenges that the regulation brings about. The UNIFE Academy, jointly with associations CER and UITP, is hosting a webinar to demystify the regulation and offer actionable guidance to ensure timely compliance.

 Join us for a lunchtime webinar exploring the core provisions of the Cyber Resilience Act and the recently published CRA guidance for the rail sector.  Our expert panellists representing the rail supply industry, rail operating community and urban rail will clarify key aspects of the CRA – its scope, timeline and functioning – and discuss the challenging application of the regulation to the rail sector. The session will expose the major changes that the CRA is producing in the rail sector, present key takeaways and best practices from the rail-oriented guidance, and discuss key challenges that are yet to be resolved, followed by a Q&A.

If you haven’t had the chance to deep dive into the regulation or if you are puzzled by its provisions, this webinar is the perfect starting point.
