As new regulations emerge around the globe—most notably the EU Cyber Resilience Act—device manufacturers are increasingly marketing compliance and certification as competitive differentiators. But with the high costs of certification, ongoing lifecycle maintenance, and evolving standards, many organizations are asking: Will consumers truly see the value?
