Secure Solutions for Radio Equipment Directive Compliance

The European Union (EU) Radio Equipment Directive (RED) is evolving. First introduced in 2014, the directive set requirements for safety, compatibility and efficient use of the radio spectrum.

It has recently been expanded to include requirements for cybersecurity and software vulnerabilities that will build on certification processes that are already in place. These additional requirements, which are included in the RED Delegated Act (RED-DA), became mandatory on August 1, 2025, and apply to all end products in the following categories:

• Article 3.3 (d): Communicate over the Internet, either directly or via any other equipment
• Article 3.3 (e): Process personal data, traffic data or location data
• Article 3.3 (f): Enable users to transfer money, monetary value or virtual currency

To achieve compliance, manufacturers must ensure their end products* meets the relevant requirements. We’re ready to help you navigate these updated certification requirements and processes.
