Yes. Log360 provides real-time alerting and instant incident summaries, allowing your team to identify and gather the necessary technical details for reporting to ENISA within the mandatory timeframe.
The EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is a landmark regulation that introduces mandatory cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements (PDE) placed on the EU market. Unlike previous voluntary frameworks, the CRA requires manufacturers, importers, and distributors to ensure security throughout a product's entire life cycle—from design and development to maintenance and incident response. Compliance is essential for any hardware or software product intended to be sold within the EU.
The EU CRA requires manufacturers to monitor the security of their products throughout their entire life cycle. Log360 automates the collection and normalization of security logs from product environments, ensuring that all relevant internal activities and security events are recorded and stored in a tamper-proof repository.
To comply with the CRA’s Security by Design principles, products must be protected against unauthorized access and malware. Log360’s correlation engine identifies active exploitation attempts by linking disparate events—such as failed logins followed by unusual process executions—allowing for immediate mitigation.
One of the most stringent aspects of the EU CRA is the mandatory 24-hour reporting window for actively exploited vulnerabilities. Log360 provides instant alerting and automated incident summaries, giving security teams the technical evidence needed to notify The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) and impacted users within the legal timeframe.
The CRA mandates that products be delivered with a secure by default configuration. Log360 continuously audits system settings and utilizes file integrity monitoring (FIM) to ensure that core binaries, configuration files, and security update mechanisms have not been tampered with or weakened.
Failing to meet the cybersecurity requirements of the CRA can lead to severe operational and financial consequences:
ManageEngine Log360 provides a comprehensive SIEM solution that helps manufacturers and organizations meet the essential cybersecurity requirements of the CRA. By centralizing security data and automating vulnerability monitoring, Log360 ensures that your digital products remain secure and compliant throughout their support period.

| Requirement number | Requirement description | How Log360 can help? |
|---|---|---|
| Annex I, 1(1) | Security by design | Audits the development and staging environments. It ensures that security configurations (GPOs, Registry) of the product meet baseline hardening standards. |
| Annex I, 1(3a) | No known exploitable vulnerabilities | Integrates with vulnerability scanners to verify that the product environment is free of "Critical" or "High" CVEs before being pushed to production or market. |
| Annex I, 1(3b) | Secure by default | Continuously monitors the product's default settings. If a user or process weakens a default security configuration (e.g., disabling a firewall), Log360 triggers an immediate alert. |
| Annex I, 1(3d) | Protection from unauthorized access | Tracks all authentication attempts to the product's management interfaces. It identifies brute-force attacks and suspicious logon events. |
| Annex I, 1(3f) | Integrity of data & commands | Uses FIM to ensure that the product's sensitive files are not modified by unauthorized users or malware. |
| Annex I, 1(3j) | Monitoring & recording (Logging) | Serves as the central logging facility required by the CRA. It records all relevant internal activity, including access to data, services, or critical product functions. |
| Annex I, 1(3k) | Secure update mechanisms | Loc360 can set up time anomaly rules to detect suspicious updates occurring outside working hours. |
| Annex I, 2(1) | Identify & document vulnerabilities | Correlates logs from your network devices with active threat intelligence to identify if your product is being exploited to any known vulnerabilities. Integrates with vulnerability scanners to verify that the product environment is free of "Critical" or "High" CVEs before being pushed to production or market. |
| Annex I, 2(2) | Remediate without delay | Log360 facilitates the requirement by providing SOAR capabilities and real-time alerts on exploits, allowing your incident response team to act immediately. |
| Annex I, 2(5) | Public disclosure (Vulnerability handling) | Provides the technical data and forensic evidence needed to draft the public advisory once a vulnerability in the product has been remediated. |
| Article 14 | 24-Hour reporting to ENISA | Automatically generates incident summaries and forensic timelines, enabling manufacturers to meet the strict 24-hour mandatory reporting window for actively exploited vulnerabilities. |
