What is Article 14 Ready?

Article 14 Ready is a preparation aid for manufacturers placing software or connected products on the EU market that must report under Article 14 of the Cyber Resilience Act. Its free field compiler runs in the browser, covers actively exploited vulnerabilities and severe incidents, and adapts the required fields to the 24h early warning, 72h notification and final report stages, with a reporting clock calculator. Incident entries stay in the browser and can be exported as Markdown, JSON or print/PDF. An optional 24h Dry Run, a self guided tabletop exercise delivered as a downloadable HTML file, costs EUR 79 excluding VAT as a one time purchase for business customers. The site states it is an independent aid and not an official filing channel, legal advice or a conformity assessment. It is operated by PEAK Consulting Services GmbH of Mannheim, Germany.

Best for: Product security and compliance teams at manufacturers preparing CRA Article 14 reports for exploited vulnerabilities or severe incidents.

Pros

  • Free compiler keeps incident entries in the browser rather than uploading them
  • Covers both actively exploited vulnerabilities and severe incidents across all three reporting stages
  • Operator named in the imprint and confirmed in the German commercial register

Things to check

  • Terms effective 9 September 2026 and current version 1.0.2, so the product has a short track record
  • No independent review or coverage of the product found; only the operating company is independently confirmed
