Patricia Shields is CEO & Co Founder of Cyber Cert Labs and has over 25 years’ experience in Cybersecurity and software development. We develop software for digital product manufacturers, enabling them to embed cybersecurity into their product development lifecycle, conform with the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and achieve the CE mark for cybersecurity. Cyber Cert Labs are leading for a Digital Europe Program project co funded by the European Commission. The project is called CRA-AI and has a total budget of €2.9 million. The project aims to reduce the burden for SME digital product manufacturers who need to conform to the Cyber Resilience Act. As part of the project, we are raising awareness of the CRA regulation to help businesses prepare early and secure their products to maintain market access and remain competitive.
