Wittra’s IoT security aligns to
EU Cyber Resilience
As the European Union’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) introduces tougher cybersecurity requirements for connected devices, Wittra Networks AB is taking a leading position with its hybrid IoT network and intelligent gateways. Wittra’s technology is designed with Security by Design principles at its core, providing both robust cybersecurity and operational efficiency for industrial applications.
A unified approach to IoT connectivity
Industrial IoT environments often suffer from fragmentation — separate, non-interoperable networks that complicate integration, increase costs, and reduce visibility. Wittra’s Unified Gateway solves this by combining multiple wireless technologies — including LoRa, Mioty, sub-GHz mesh (6LoWPAN) and Ultra-Wideband (UWB) — into one cohesive, secure network.
This hybrid architecture enables organizations to reuse existing sensors, integrate new technologies seamlessly, and reduce infrastructure duplication. The result is simplified deployment, stronger data integration, and improved scalability across diverse industrial environments.
Security built In from the ground up
The EU’s CRA mandates that cybersecurity must be integrated throughout a product’s lifecycle — from design to deployment and beyond. Wittra’s solution is built exactly this way.
By separating operational (OT) networks from broader IT systems, Wittra prevents exposure of critical infrastructure to external threats. All communications are encrypted and authenticated, while secure over-the-air firmware updates (FOTA) allow customers to deploy patches and new functionality remotely and safely.
Only digitally signed and verified firmware is accepted, ensuring protection against tampering and guaranteeing compliance with CRA requirements for continuous vulnerability management.
Bridging legacy and next-generation devices
For organizations with legacy LoRa-based sensors, Wittra’s hybrid gateway offers a seamless migration path. Existing devices can operate securely within the Wittra platform, while newer, fully updateable sensors are added over time. This approach safeguards previous investments and provides a smooth transition to a CRA-compliant future.
“Our hybrid gateway brings together security, updatability, and interoperability — exactly what the EU’s new cybersecurity framework demands. It makes our customers’ IoT systems stronger, more resilient, and ready for the future,” said Warwick Taws, CTO, Wittra Networks AB.
A future-proof platform for a regulated world
With the CRA set to take effect in the coming years, Wittra’s hybrid IoT architecture offers manufacturers and operators a clear path to compliance — without sacrificing flexibility or scalability. The company’s secure, multi-standard approach empowers industrial players to stay connected, protected, and compliant in an increasingly regulated digital landscape.
