Enterprise Security Forum: CRA Ready – A competitive edge through good security practices

September 17, 2026, 10:00 am – 11:30 am

Location: HNFIZ | Berliner Platz 12 | 74072 Heilbronn

The Enterprise Security Forum (ESF) brings together companies from the region with leading experts from the worlds of research and industry: practical, straightforward and on an equal footing. The series of events addresses specific topics, ranging from regulatory requirements to technical measures, and provides guidance where it is needed. 

This time, the focus is on CRA Ready – gaining a competitive edge through good security practice. Dr Steven Arzt from ATHENE | Fraunhofer SIT explains what the CRA actually means for businesses and what measures should be taken. And Manuel Bissing, Head of Shopfloor Cyber Security & Cyber Security Architecture at Mercedes-Benz Tech Innovation, addresses the question in his presentation of why risk-based cyber governance is becoming a game-changer for resilient manufacturing.
The ESF is organised by HNFIZ Cyber­security in collaboration with Fraunhofer SIT and ATHENE – three institutions that are firmly establishing cybersecurity research and the transfer of knowledge into practice in the region.

We would like to thank the Heilbronn-Franken Chamber of Industry and Commerce for its kind support.
