Free Software and CRA - expert talk and discussion
As part of the “Dialog für Cybersicherheit” (Dialogue on Cybersecurity) project, the FSFE and the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) are working together with representatives from civil society, academia, industry and public authorities in a project on the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and its implication for Free Software. To ensure clarity, information is needed on who will take on which role and which tasks and processes are to be carried out. In particular, the role of Open Source Stewards and Free Software beyond commercial interest are of particular importance to the project.
This video is a recording of an event held as part of the "Dialogue for Cybersecurity." The statements
made therein do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the Federal Office for Information Security
(BSI). The first event in the workstream series took place on April 3, 2025.
Moderators: Alexander Sander, Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) und Michael Schuster, (BSI)
Speakers: Caroline Krohn (BSI) and Maarten Aertsen, senior internet technologist at NLnet Labs
Maarten Aertsen's talk focuses on how Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) is addressed by the
Cyber Resilience Act and in particular on how that is different from other New Legislative Framework
(NLF) style regulations in different segments.
In the "Dialog for Cybersecurity", organized civil society and representatives from science, culture
and media, industry and state (dialogue partners) enter into intensive exchange with each other and
with the BSI.
