Frequently asked questions

It guides you through a Cyber Resilience Act threat & risk analysis and maps CRA, NIS 2 and IEC 62443 requirements onto your secure development process, then exports the documentation you need to keep.

No — and that's deliberate. GRC suites manage your organisation's controls and policies across many frameworks (ISMS, ISO 27001, business continuity, supplier risk). TRA Studio works one level down: it produces the product-level evidence the CRA actually requires for each device or software product — the guided threat & risk analysis, the Annex I risk assessment, requirement-to-development traceability, and a shareable conformity dossier. Many manufacturers run a GRC tool for organisational compliance and TRA Studio for their products.

No. It is a documentation aid that helps you produce and maintain the evidence. It does not issue certificates or constitute legal advice.
